Well, one of the most widely used that allows to do low-level stuff. The most widely used one is by far JavaScript but good luck making an OS or a device driver with it

I'm sure there are projects covering those areas written in JavaScript.

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should and i hope that is not a thing

Oh gawd. That would be so horrible! Is there a project o compile JavaScript to bytecode? With like LLVM? There must be, but I haven't heard of it. I shouldn't even say anything because I will be better off pretending it doesn't exist.

Just bundle a JavaScript interpreter with the JavaScript code. No need to compile JavaScript.
