It will include polyfills automatically in the cases where certain language features are not available. </p> <p><a href="https://github.com/AgronKabashi/jspicl">Github repo for jspicl</a></p> <p>A simple mario game showcasing this can be found <a href="https://github.com/AgronKabashi/jspicl-mario-sample">here</a> and more are coming.</p> <p>Please let me know what you think, I would love to receive some feedback.</p> https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=31187 https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=31187 Thu, 26 Apr 2018 11:05:26 UTC
