There is no such language category.

The JavaScript project type was removed because it's essentially superfluous. Even in a non-JavaScript project, NetBeans will still recognize any JavaScript libraries that you add, and code completion should still work automatically.

Can you simply create a PHP project for example and then delete everything related to PHP? ;)

You can simply leave your .js and any other files you need (.html?).

Yeah..feels so ugly to do like this :)
Yeah, you may feel a bit dirty afterwards, but it will wear off! ;-)
I don't like this solution, because I'm trying to do node.js projects nowadays, and they aren't related to PHP at all... the node.js plugins are sparse right now

There is a node js plugin which has a javascript project type for that.

There is also the adhoc project plugin which will let you treat any folder as a project for purposes of opening files (no "run" support).

It looks like you can choose "Java Web" for the category and "Web Free-Form Application". I had to provide it with a dummy "build script", but that was the worst hack.
