Really cool!

Is there an advantage to creating a quickjs wrapper instead of compiling the C wrapper into a node module?

This is my personal taste. QuickJS is simpler and more lightweight than Node/V8. Some developers like me prefer software they can comprehend. No JIT, small code base, clean code, easy to extend. With QuickJS I think I can build anything. Author of of QuickJS has long track record. Again, that is my personal taste.
