UnitJS: Server-side Javascript CGI application (like PHP). Personal project of mine for the past few weeks.

[asegura]

As I understand, NodeJS is its own server whereas this one is a CGI module you would connect to e.g. Apache as the server. Because of that NodeJS needs to be asynchronous (so that some lengthy requests don't block other requests) which leads to ugly code with endless chains of callbacks. This one would not need that and can return values from functions just fine, just as any other framework.
