No, it's ES6. Class hierarchies, promises, etc, were liberately left out of JavaScript. ES6 is something, but it's not JavaScript. Sadly the brand was hijacked.

that's fair. But my understanding was the only reason JS !== to ES6, is because of deliberations and therefore lagging browser adoption. Its a relatively safe bet that many ES6 features will be adopted. And those features that don't see adoption will likely eventually be dropped from node, eventually.
