Description : ECMAScript 5.1(+) implementation written in Go
Full ECMAScript 5.1(+) implementation (including regex and strict
mode) in Go.
.
It is not a replacement for V8 or SpiderMonkey or any other
general-purpose JavaScript engine as it is much slower. It can be used
as an embedded scripting language where the cost of making a lot of cgo
calls may outweigh the benefits of a faster JavaScript engine or as a
way to avoid having non-Go dependencies.
This library is being packaged as a build dependency of loadimpact/k6
(loadimpact/k6 -> dop251/goja).
