Re: [Guidolib-devel] Guido.js: A JavaScript Port of Guido

[Dominique F. <fo...@gr...>]

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your interest in the guido project.
Actually, we’re already thinking of the migration to the web and to mobile devices too.
Concerning the web, there is already an approach that should be published soon :  a restful web service embedding the guido engine and providing the guido library API over http.
But the javascript approach is also of interest, although the effort is of a different order of magnitude. Could you tell what is your approach ? Rewriting the engine in javascript ? automatically converting the C++ code in javascript (as much as possible) ? a mix of both ?
Do your plan to use javascript as is, or a derived typed lang like TypeScript ( http://www.typescriptlang.org/ ) ?
Anyway your project is really interesting and I hope we'll be able to join our efforts.
All the best

Dominique

ps: and I wish you a quick thaw :-)
