My Background:

I am very new to the Guile project. I have written scripts in Guile and
have dabbled in the source code, but over all - I am fairly new to the
project.



NYACC includes an example of partial javascript implementation:

https://git.savannah.nongnu.org/cgit/nyacc.git/tree/examples/nyacc/lang/javascript

I stopped at implementing objects, because I wanted to have a
uniform implementation.   The above does have functions and control 
structures.

Sorry, "it's mostly ES6".

Hi Ayush!
I have some experiences to write language frontend on Guile.
Here are posts and project you can take a look, they could be helpful to
you.

I actually have a very preliminary project to implement ES10, however, I
never have time to finish it since I started my own company.

ES10 has small fixes compared with ES6, so it's mostly ES10. Anyway,
JavaScript is a big language to implement.

I'm still interested in JavaScript frontend. I can answer questions as I
can if you really want to make your hands dirty.

Best regards.
