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).

- A new SpiderMonkey API for building and inspecting parse trees.
- Make mostly-dense arrays blazingly fast.
- Expose ECMA 262 Regular Expression API to C/C++ clients.
- JS3 Requirements, or what lies beyond JS2/ES4.
Older Projects/Ideas
- Narcissus (source code).
- Context-thread the SpiderMonkey interpreter.
Coding Style Guidelines
- SpiderMonkey C++ guidelines
- SpiderMonkey older C guidelines
- How to write unit tests for use by jsDriver.pl.
