Is there something equivalent on Windows or Linux?
As far as MacOS goes, has there been any official word on the future of AppleScript? I remember a few years ago they got rid of the team that did most of the work on AppleScript and related thing and it looked like it may have become one of those "we aren't actively killing it but no one cares so will probably die naturally over the next few OS releases" things.
But then they introduced the Shortcuts app for MacOS Monterey earlier this year, and AppleScript is a prominent part of that, which suggests that they still do care about keeping it alive and kicking.
