It contains a stripped version of Blink with most of functions.
- dchest 10y agoBlink is a rendering engine, V8 is a JavaScript engine. Node.js contains V8, but not Blink.
- est 10y agoIt's a naming thing, it does include v8 to execute js. Blink is a fork of webkit, by your logic, most softwares based on webkit can not execute javascript???
- dchest 10y agoNo, Blink doesn't include V8, it's a separate project. WebKit consists of WebCore — layout engine, and JavaScriptCore — JavaScript engine. Google forked WebCore part of WebKit to create Blink. Before the fork it used a combination of WebCore and V8. This information is readily available on, e.g. Wikipedia, so I'm not sure why you even try to argue about it. Node.js doesn't include Blink, it only includes V8. Node.js Compiler doesn't include Blink into the build result — it includes Node.js.
