Is it possible to interact with the Automation HAT directly from NodeJS, is there an NPM package?  
I have noticed some HATs have Node examples but not this one.

Is it as simple as reading the RasPi GPIO pins ?  
Looking through the Python code the ADC is on the I2C bus ?

Sorry for the Newbie questions, just looking for a starting point.

I’m slowly working on a Javascript package for Automation Hat. [https://youtu.be/vV0NKdNDt60](https://youtu.be/vV0NKdNDt60)
