 This is probably a "stupid" feature request but I am not afraid to ask. To
 be honest, WordPress is very popular and great stuff. But PHP, yuck ... I
 have abandoned PHP years ago for node.js

 Some clients of mine want me to develop custom plugins but I loathe PHP.
 Hence I am wondering if it's technically possible to write a plugin in
 pure JavaScript and run it on the server-side in a WP PHP process?

 I think such a node.js integration would be soooooo cool and attract more
 developers! Even better, npm modules could become WP plugins. Imagine the
 possibilities - call me crazy, I don't care ;)
