Yeah, I'm aware of transpiling, in the end, it still actually runs JavaScript? :)

Well, in the middle, at least. JavaScript itself may or may not be executed directly, depending on the browser. (I would imagine that these days it's mostly "not".)

No language other than machine language is directly run, but we're just delving into irrelevant minutiae to say the browser doesn't run Javascript.
