QuickJS

A community-driven QuickJS fork.

Optimizations

In addition to the relevant features and optimizations in the TODO file, the more important optimizations are:

• Column number
• Basic Debugger API
• Poly IC
  • Self Poly IC
  • Prototype Poly IC
• Replace malloc To mimalloc
• Improve The Performance Of GC

In our plan, we first complete the above optimizations and then gradually add the remaining parts.

Develop

Clone

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/openquickjs/quickjs.git

Install Build Tools

brew install cmake ninja # macOS
sudo apt install cmake ninja-build # Ubuntu

The Windows build environment is not yet officially supported.

Build

bash scripts/build.sh # build quickjs qjs
bash scripts/test.sh # run test262 tests

You can find libquickjs.a in lib folder and qjs / run-test262 in bin folder.

1. If you're using Visual Studio Code, you can use the CMake Tools extension to build the program.
2. If you're using CLion, you can open the project directly to build the program.

Using VSCode or CLion for regular development is recommended.

Debug

Install Debug Tools if you need.

brew install lldb # macOS
sudo apt install lldb # Ubuntu

If you're using VSCode, you can use the C/C++ and Code LLDB extension to debug.
