I always used Neko as the default VM to run Haxe code. I used it the same way most people now use NodeJS: tooling, simple webserver, quick prototype.

These days, I start new projects in NodeJS because teams don't know about Neko. Which is a shame because Neko and the Haxe language solve most critisism of NodeJS and JS in general.

Haxe's JavaScript target works great in combination with Node as well though. :) (https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/hxnodejs)

For instance, the Haxe VSCode extension itself is a Node project written in Haxe.
