V8, modern JavaScript, and beyond – Google I/O 2016




Join Seth Thompson as he talks about V8, modern JavaScript, and beyond.

JavaScript powers the modern web and countless servers running Node.js. Chrome’s V8 engine is faster than ever at running JavaScript code and now includes powerful new ES2015 features to give developers more control over how they write their apps. Listen to Seth Thompson talk about the latest speed advances V8 has made in compiling and running real-world code and how those performance improvements scale to large JavaScript frameworks running on a wide variety of devices. Finally, hear about the future of fast code in the browser with WebAssembly: a new cross-browser, plugin-free, low-level runtime for executing C/C++ code on the web.

  1. this is pretty epic that you can do front and backend in two different windows.

    wow! look at that game in chrome!! good lord! That fixes the issue of Linux users wanting to play games that Windows users can play and mac users can play too! Web browser gaming is really the best way of gaming because then anyone can create a game and as long as you have a browser, you can pretty much play it.
