Microsoft Edge embedded JavaScript engine is about to open source

Microsoft Today (2015 December 10th) announced the forthcoming open source Chakra Core Control and renamed "Chakracore", which contains all the core features of all Edge JavaScript engines. Chakracore will be released next month on GitHub.

Chakra offers top-of-the-class JavaScript processing capabilities with a very powerful performance advantage, which is very reliable and easy to scale. "I hope Chakracore can continue to maintain its existing advantages and better serve the cloud," a Microsoft spokesman said .

Microsoft says it expects to brainstorm, better develop Chakracore, and expects Chakracore to be compatible with Intel,AMD, Nodesource, etc. in the future.

Chakracore is already a very mature, self-contained JavaScript virtual machine that can be integrated into a derivative product or application system.

Chakracore has designed a fast, scalable, lightweight engine for any application and expects it to be more flexible and capable of supporting multiple platforms in the future, not limited to Windows systems.
