WRT Duktape, I'm not exactly seeing broad ES6 support (ES7+ isn't much better): https://kangax.github.io/compat-table/es6/#duktape2_2
There's a few others with very bad ES6+ support that are still in broad use: - Getting older businesses and organizations (like colleges) to transition away from IE is still a giant work in progress - Windows 7 and 8 (still supported) don't have Edge to shove it in their face, and many IT departments have their hands tied with bureaucracy. - Nashorn has only modest support for ES6, but it targets an audience that doesn't use JS for anything heavy. (To be quite honest, giving them ES6 might *encourage* them to write worse code.) ----- Isiah Meadows [email protected] www.isiahmeadows.com On Mon, Jun 25, 2018 at 4:17 AM, Andrea Giammarchi < [email protected]> wrote: > At JSConfEU they gave all participants a neonious: > https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/neonious-one-javascript- > es6-ts-board-with-low-js-computers-animation#/ > > it has ES6 and it runs on similar ESP32 HW the Espruino runs too. > > I don't think there's any particular issue in bringing ES6 there, but > maybe not the whole thing works. > > duktape also seems there with most features: http://duktape.org > > Accordingly, I don't understand why anyone would be stuck at ES5 these > days. > > On Mon, Jun 25, 2018 at 5:34 AM Isiah Meadows <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> There's also JerryScript, which given their target platform, there's *no* >> way they're going to be able to reliably implement much of ES6.
