Using NodeJS libraries on Linux to talk to Nordic BLE devices

I am interested in writing a BLE central that reads data from multiple BLE Nordic sensors. The BLE central will be running on Embedded Linux which uses the BlueZ stack.

I noticed that Node.js has several libraries for implementing BLE(Bluetooth low energy) profiles. It will be great if this can be done in Javascript. However, I am worried about inherent limitations with this approach using a scripting language like Javascript. Is it necessary to implement a BLE profile in C language that talks directly to the BlueZ APIs through Dbus?
