Writing your own JavaScript Engine

CEans,

I stumbled upon following posts -

Now, writing your own JavaScript engine is no child's play. But a curious person that I am, I want to know what exactly is a JavaScript engine, what knowledge does it take to write one [probably, SmallTalk, C/C++, Virtualization etc.]

In all, I want to know about efforts & knowledge required to build a web browser from ground up [you know, without copy-pasting anyone else's code].

    I have these, rather BIG, plans of building a web browser as a CE Project.

    Anyone interested?

    I would have loved to participate but I'm afraid I don't know much about open technology languages.

    The project is not going to start anytime soon. We'll have our own team working on it from a some specific geographic location.

    I just want to know if we have CEans who can delve inside the core of web browsers 😉

    No one wants to share ideas in this thread? I guess its high time we go beyond 'online reservation systems' and 'process monitors'.

    Here's some exciting stuff for computer science engineers? Anyone?

    Great 😁

    We've lots of super cool CS engineers on CE. I bet its going to be tough. But at least, we all can brainstorm 😁

    You're referring to very old posts. Looks like the blogs and pages have been moved or deleted.
