This will nice to have. Nodejs just does not fit into our current environment set up.

Instead for do such a secret meeting, I will propose my solution here: simply use a JS interpreter inside go. Angular itself is JS, and we don't want to mess twice.
There's one using this solution for React: see here.
I believe Angular universe is capable for this as well. We currently have Otto as a Go, sandboxable interpreter or V8 bindings as the rapid way.
