Answer 1

install NodeJs https://nodejs.org/en/ and start it

node startCRM.js

Answer 2

You can use the NodeJS framework (https://nodejs.org/) to invoke JS on your machine. It bundles the JavaScript runner with it and you can use node command to run a JS program, or to enter a REPL.

e.g.

$ node
>> var a = 2 + 3;
   5

You can also use Chrome Headless for running server side scripts. Internally it uses Node itself.
