Why js not c++?

 

Hello,
I've got noob question:
Why most of Core Apps are written in js, not in example c++?
If I good understand js must be 'compiled' every time we lunch it, c++ only
once.
Because of that, I thought c++ is much more faster than js (and as we can
see, launching Core Apps are really slow). Could anyone explain it to me?
