Check out https://TPLang.org/ for a JavaScript based Open-Source alternative to GCode. I'm the author.

Looks like more of a programming language than a list of commands like g-code. That's not a good design in my opinion. I mean do you expect CNC machines and CAD programs to embed JavaScript interpreters? Or does it export to g-code? In which case it isn't really an alternative.
