For what it's worth, Sugar 0.110 (OLPC OS 13.2.8) has been installed on hundreds of XO laptops, all models in Rwanda. The codebase is reaching these classrooms. I am not sure what you mean by the js codebase, but if you mean the sugar web activities. Yes they are available for optional installment (along with the other activities in ASLO)

One of the projects listed is social help. It's a fine idea, but a
cursory look at the site shows it has extremely low activity. I think
it would be better to shut it down.
Sugar tries to literally replace every part of the computer that a user
sees.  And believe it or not; that is a hard goal for a small free
software community.  3 people in their spare time can't replace the
years of work poured into every other desktop environment & their
software.

You're 100% spot on.  The future of SL is things like TurtleJS.
