JavaScript language and implementation plans go here. For background, see:
- JS items in Brendan's roadmap blog.
- The Mozilla JS language page.
- The ECMAScript (ES) language site.
- JS pages at the Mozilla Developer Center (MDC).
- Rhino documentation at MDC. Rhino is an implementation of JavaScript in Java.
Active Projects
- TraceMonkey, the addition of native-code compilation to SpiderMonkey
- JagerMonkey, a new baseline JIT compiler for SpiderMonkey
- Tamarin, the new virtual machine for ActionScript that's already in Flash.
- Make mostly-dense arrays blazingly fast. Latest bug: type-specialized Arrays.
- Context-thread the SpiderMonkey interpreter.
- Expose ECMA 262 Regular Expression API to C/C++ clients.
- A new SpiderMonkey API for building and inspecting parse trees.
- Narcissus (source code).
Blue Sky
- JS3 Requirements, or what lies beyond JS2/ES4.
Coding Style Guidelines
- SpiderMonkey C++ guidelines
- SpiderMonkey older C guidelines
- How to write unit tests for use by jsDriver.pl.
References
- "Garbage Collection: algorithms for automatic dynamic memory management", by Richard Jones, is a comprehensive reference book about different garbage collection algorithms.
- Also Richard Jones's webpage has a collection of references.
- Several conferences where most memory management papers go: ISMM, PLDI, OOPSLA, VEE.
