JavaScript runtime with stackful coroutines. Pros:- Massive outburst of scripts running as coroutines- Simple API without using async/await yet running in parallel- Built for Linux (x86_64, arm6, arm7, arm8, arm64), Windows (x86, x86_64, arm64), MacOS(x86_64, arm64), iOS(arm64), Android (arm7, arm64, x86, x86_64)- Memory arenas per script/coroutine using single threaded non lockable memory- Polymorphic c/c++ allocators sharing same memory arena as script context- Similar to Flutter's Isolates for message passing between threads and scripts/coroutines- Caching the precompiled script modules for faster reuse- LRU cache for small script files and file handles- Thread pool dynamically grows and shrinks depending of workload- Using io_uring optimizations for Linux - asynchronous threads, processes and pipes (thank you boost::asio)- Predictive branching favoring desired outcomes (sounds smart, but it's a macro on every if statement)- There are no mutexes or any synchronization/ blocking calls- JavaScript library (quickjs) is using reference counting for it's garbage collections which makes c/c++ binding more deterministic and memory efficient- C/C++ metatemplates are used to "fuse" dynamic JavaScript objects with statically typed C++ counterpartsCons:- no debugger- no final release date- no stable API- no complete test coverage- plan to open-source it until spring of 2023
