(author here) Good point. TBH, I have no idea what "isomorphic" means in the mathematical sense.

I was inspired to use "isomorphic" from a 2011 article by Nodejitsu [1]. It seemed like a fine way to describe this approach. I would gladly use a better would if I were to find one.

How about "monomorphic", having or existing in only one form?

Technically, you're correct, see the biology and chemistry use of the word. But seeing how you're dealing with a mathematically inclined audience, there will be disapproval. I think it's a very useful concept in general, the more it gets out into the world, the better.

I like relocatable JavaScript.

It's the first time that I hear about it, and I do not dislike relocatable at all

There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation and naming things.

A few ideas:

"End-to-End JavaScript" - popular but not exactly what you mean but close

"Run Anywhere JavaScript"

"Write Once JavaScript"

"Two Sided JavaScript" - server-side and browser-side

"Browse-N-Serve Javascript"

What about simply DRY? isn't that what you're aiming for - having code sharable between client and server such that you don't have two pieces of code that do the same thing in two different places?

Shall "multiplateform javascript [code]" be suitable here? Looks like this is all it's about: having a single js code generating the same results, with no dependance on the plateform.

I like "multiplatform" -- current winner :)
