real answer: dead project, too ambitious yet redundant with existing solutions.

In this context, a VM is like NodeJS or JVM.

I'm still confused about the context. I'm assuming "VM" doesn't mean "virtual machine" in this case? Or maybe it does with a different meaning?

Idk im just an IT guy, not a web developer

Yes, it means "virtual machine", but not the kind you're thinking of.

This isn't like VMware Workstation, this is more like the Java VM or the Dalvik VM, it's a virtual execution environment for a specific purpose.
