What is Jurassic?
Jurassic is an implementation of the ECMAScript
language and runtime. It aims to provide the best performing and most
standards-compliant implementation of JavaScript for .NET. Jurassic is not
intended for end-users; instead it is intended to be integrated into .NET
programs. If you are the author of a .NET program, you can use Jurassic to
compile and execute JavaScript code.
Features
- Supports all ECMAScript 3 and ECMAScript 5 functionality, including ES5
strict mode
- Simple yet powerful API
- Compiles JavaScript into .NET bytecode (CIL); not an interpreter
- Deployed as a single .NET assembly (no native code)
- Basic support for integrated debugging within Visual Studio
- Uses light-weight code generation, so generated code is fully garbage
collected
- Tested on .NET 3.5, .NET 4 and Silverlight
