React (a javascript library, sometimes referred to as reactJS or react.js) and more specifically its most popular module, Reagent, which is a full, lazily-loaded preemptive operating system that can run concurrent Java, Pythonjs, Rubyjs programs all from your browser while allowing cooperative suspend, load and save to network or local storage, intertab cooperative process management, etc. Basically, if you're not working in an add-on to a framework library written in javascript running in a web browser, you might as well be using punch cards. /s I made the part about Reagent up, but you know you believed it. We're so far from the metal we might as well be sending a telegram with our requirements. In the five seconds it takes this crap to load and show you a still loading page, your CPU cores have done 40,000,000,000 sixty-four bit operations.

You laugh, but Odoo* 's hand-rolled, Backbone.js-based frontend framework includes an interpreter for a subset of Python. They call it py.js. I'm not fucking with you. https://github.com/odoo/odoo/tree/10.0/addons/web/static/lib/py.js https://github.com/odoo/odoo/tree/10.0/addons/web/static/lib... Just so that you can experience the full horror: Yes, the Python server ships XML templates with raw embedded Python code to the client. The client then parses the XML and interprets the Python using this py.js thing. If the embedded Python needs to access the database (and it almost always does), the client makes calls to a JSONRPC interface on the server. (If you ever think of using Odoo. Don't. Just... don't.) *An open source ERP.
