How to run code without node?
In addition to the other responses, there are node packages like pkg and nexe that you can use to package the node executable and your code into a single executable.

Deploy on Windows Server
well... you need the code on the server in some way in order to run it. Nodejs doesn't compile to a binary. There are ways to wrap a node install and the code into a binary. But I have never used that in production and can't actually recommend it.

Can I use Node for general scripting? (Like python)
yes, you can even compile your js if you want a single executable, with things like nexe

Embeddable Common Lisp 23.9.9
The SCI/babashka clojure interpreter might be a good fit, if you're ok with a lisp.
It's mature and fully sandboxed.

create-helix-app: project templates with Helix and more
To try it out, run npx create-helix-app in your terminal. It is powered by Nbb, Ink, and Helix itself!

Releasing Longdown: Convert longform markdown files to outline format used by Logseq
Thanks for building! May also want to share in #extension-news in discord to reach more users. Fwiw, you might be able to write the whole script without the need for compilation with https://github.com/babashka/nbb. You may also be interested in https://github.com/logseq/nbb-logseq as a fair amount of logseq core is scriptable

Administrative Scripting with Julia
I wish there was something elaborated for scripts that run on Node. I've been using nbb[1] for scripting, and although it all runs through Node.js, it is fast and quick to prototype scripts. The best part is in CI I can simply `npx nbb path/to/script.cljs`. Things get clunky if I want to use anything about of the Node stdlib though, since then you need the dreaded node_modules folder around.

I'm considering moving from Clojure to Common Lisp
For clojure I just found for babashka it seems someone natively compiled jsoup with graalvm and exposed (minimal functionality from it) as a babashka pod, or a possibility would be use nbb like babashka for node. But if racket has the libraries you need and you don't need js/jvm ecosystem than I'm sure it'll be great also

Is anyone using Shadow on the backend ?
There are some folks using nbb on the backend as well: https://github.com/babashka/nbb, e.g. in AWS Lambdas or via the sitefox framework: https://github.com/chr15m/sitefox. Don't expect stellar performance from nbb since it's interpreted CLJS rather than compiled (as you have with shadow-cljs) but for small scoped projects and fast prototyping it might be ok.

nbb: I'm confused how to include dependencies from Clojars
I tried reproducing this example from the nbb documentation.
- nbb, scripting for Clojure on Node.js, turns 1.0!

i am so ANGRY with Clojure community
If you don't want to deal with the tooling but want to practice the language, have a look at https://github.com/babashka/nbb
What are some alternatives?
When comparing nexe and nbb you can also consider the following projects:

babashka - Native, fast starting Clojure interpreter for scripting
pydantic - Data validation using Python type hints
babashka-sql-pods - Babashka pods for SQL databases
deno - A modern runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript.
