A curated list of resources for learning about JavaScript engines and virtual machines, covering architecture, JIT compilation, inline caches, and garbage collection. It includes papers, blog posts, talks, and code for engines like V8, JavaScriptCore, ChakraCore, and SpiderMonkey.
Use cases
- learn how javascript engines work internally
- understand v8 garbage collection
- study jit compilation and inline caches
- find papers on virtual machine optimization
- prepare for a talk on js engine internals
When to choose
- you want a curated reading list on JS engine internals
- you're researching VM architecture, adaptive optimization, or GC strategies
When to avoid
- you need a runnable tool or library rather than learning material
- you need up-to-date engine documentation, as the list was last updated in 2019
