This version is

• Microsoft Visual C++ compatible/compileable
• Is used in Sciter.JS
• It contains extras:
  • JSX - built-in facebook::JSX support with Sciter specific extras.
  • Built-in Persistence - you can think of it as local MongoDB (NoSQL) DB embedded into the language. Pretty small, adds just 70kb into binary. Persistence is based on DyBASE of Konstantin Knizhnik

The main documentation is in doc/quickjs.pdf or doc/quickjs.html.

Build using Microsoft Visual Studio (2017 or 2019)

Prerequisite: premake5 - download and install it.
