…server JavaScript projects are supported through the TypeScript language server internally. As a result, they appear as TypeScript in the dashboard and the Add Language menu does not list JavaScript as a separate option. This is expected behaviour — all JavaScript features work normally. Added an inline note to the JavaScript entry and a cross-reference on the TypeScript entry to prevent user confusion (see oraios#1141). Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Thanks. I have added a more minimal version of this with commit f51ba80 |

Closes #1141
JavaScript support is provided internally by the TypeScript language server (via a
lang_name_mappingin the config). This means JavaScript projects will appear as TypeScript in the Serena dashboard, and the Add Language menu doesn't list JavaScript as a separate option — which is expected and works correctly.Without a note, users (and LLMs) get confused when they see the dashboard report "TypeScript" for a plain JS project. The LLM then warns the user about a mismatch that doesn't actually indicate a problem.
Added an inline note under the JavaScript entry in the language support docs, and a cross-reference on the TypeScript entry.
