JavaScript (V8 Engine) and Source

February 17th, 2009

I decided that I would try implementing V8 with the only game engine I am familiar with: Source.  With no intention to finish the project, it should at least be a good learning experience.  But regardless, I didn’t foresee such a hindering factor…  Now, my skills are: BASIC (G/W to .NET 3.5), C/C++ (GNU to .NET), PHP (3, 4 & 5), C#, SQL, HTML/CSS, Java, lua.  With one crucial thing missing…  You guess it: JavaScript.  I don’t know hardly anything about the structure of the language.  I can do a document.write like nobody’s business but beyond that, I’ve got nothing.  Another project failed before it started…. Or maybe I’ll just learn JS.
