Introducing SJS

http://croczilla.com/~alex/oni/stratified/samples/presentation1/

• "Modular and composable concurrency for webapplications"
• Cross-browser extension to JavaScript language
• Adds small number of new keywords (suspend, retract), operators (@, <>, |@|, &@&), and special functions (hold, spawn, resume).
• Compatibility:
  • Most 'normal' JS programs should work without modifications in SJS
  • Can call SJS functions from 'normal' JS and vice versa
• SJS code is compiled to JS code, which is executed with a special runtime
• Compiler prototype implemented in JavaScript

      <script type="text/javascript" src="sjs-loader.js"></script>

      <script type="text/sjs">

        // [ SJS code here ]
        // Will be compiled/executed by sjs-loader.js 
        // after document onload
       
      </script>
