JSIL: CIL to Javascript Compiler
- julius 15y agoAlso check out the demos at http://jsil.org/ http://jsil.org/ The developer has implemented very basic functionality[1] of the XNA library (so there are games :D). Programming a complete game in .NET (super-powerful IDEs, with code-completion and integrated debuggers, profiles is nice), then deploying it to the Web is a pretty cool thing. Of course this project is not nearly as mature[2] as GWT. But I like the approach of compiling bytecode better, than GWTs Java compilations. Many cool .NET languages exist (like F#), which you can use that way. [1]: that's basically it https://github.com/kevingadd/JSIL/blob/master/Libraries/JSIL.XNACore.js https://github.com/kevingadd/JSIL/blob/master/Libraries/JSIL... [2]: page says "JSIL is still in development. You will hit bugs."
- js4all 15y agoThis is pretty impressive.
- Rauchg 15y agoAlso check out the author's blog, which has articles about the creation of this compiler and some of the challenges involved. http://www.luminance.org/ http://www.luminance.org/
- pktm 15y agoFull disclosure: I'm a Mac guy. I don't understand why I'd want this, though I would desperately love to understand why one would. Can anyone help? Please & thank you.
- rdhatch 15y agoJSIL is awesome. It's exactly in the direction we want. .NET client-side code. We are hoping Kevin & the JSIL community follow the Knockout JS approach, with HTML5 databinding to ViewModels written in C#, compiled to Javascript. Just think - C# ViewModels calling a WCF service, from Javascript. Pretty awesome direction. Ryan
