scriptc is a TypeScript-to-native compiler that aims for zero-code-change Node.js compatibility
cramforce · x · 2026-07-25
A new experiment called scriptc aims to be a TypeScript-to-native compiler.
- Written in TypeScript and static by default
- Type-checked by tsc
- Targets byte-for-byte Node.js compatibility
- Falls back to QuickJS-NG for dynamic behavior
The stated goal is to compile existing TS/JS projects with no code changes. The attached demo shows a Fibonacci script running both directly and after building to a native binary, with the same output.
