Sounds like a lot of work (not to say it's not possible or interesting). Our bindings code[1] is pretty complicated already. It depends highly on how Chakra deals with things internally -- if it's similar to SpiderMonkey; I'd be interested in having a look. Might become a fun project :)
Without a reference open source DOM implementation (which we have for SM -- Firefox's DOM), we'd also need good docs for the Chakra API. No idea if that exists.

- hiteshk_msft 11y agoEngineer on Chakra here- are these the docs you're looking for? https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249552(v=vs.94).aspx https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249552(v=vs.94).a...
- oblio 11y agoI know it's off-topic, but since you're a Microsoft employee: haven't the MSDN guys ever heard about friendly URLs? Compare: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/SpiderMonkey https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/Sp... (I'm guessing this would be at least the milionth time they hear about it :) )
- Lx1oG-AWb6h_ZG0 11y agoMSDN does support friendly names: https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/system.string https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/system.string (works for any .net class) I think the person who wrote this particular page simply didn't specify a friendly name, which is why it's falling back to the canonical name.
- Manishearth 11y agoYep! Especially the reference. Will have a look and compare with the spidermonkey bindings when I get time. Thanks!
