Hey, I'm the author of this article. I'm really interested in people's thoughts and happy to answer any questions.
PythonMonkey is a Python library for executing JavaScript in Python. In Python you can use it to import JavaScript CommonJS modules with just: `pythonmonkey.require('my-js-lib')`.
We're making PythonMonkey so we can port our complicated JavaScript NPM package to to Python without re-writing it entirely.
We're also building a new JavaScript runtime in Python called PMJS using PythonMonkey that allows developers to use Python libraries in their serverside JavaScript projects.
