# The JavaScript Oxidation Compiler (oxc)
|
||
|
||
## Why this project?
|
||
|
||
The goal of this project is to:
|
||
|
||
* Create a blazingly fast JavaScript Compiler written in Rust.
|
||
* Provide good documentation on learning Rust and compiler techniques.
|
||
* Create a linter.
|
||
|
||
And mostly importantly, an invitation for you to come and learn Rust with me.
|
||
We will learn a lot from each other!
|
||
|
||
You can watch this project and also [follow me on twitter](https://twitter.com/boshen_c) if you don't have the time to
|
||
Rust but would like to learn things.

## Contributing
|

|
||
Contributions are welcome and highly appreciated. To get started, check out [CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md).

|
||
## Call for action
|
||
|
||
|
||
You can take a look at some of the [good first issues](
|
||
https://github.com/Boshen/oxc/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22) if you want to practice some Rust.
|
||
|
||
I welcome all nitpickings and bikesheddings if you think any of the code can be improved, just make an issue.
|
||
|
||
I have also created some [discussions](https://github.com/Boshen/oxc/discussions) for documenting my thought processes.
|
||
|
||
## Milestone
|
||
|
||
Oxc has a fully working parser and a prototype for the linter right now.
|
||
|
||
The current objectives are:
|
||
|
||
* A MVP (Most Viable Product) for the linter.
|
||
* Improve the parser for real usage. Areas include:
|
||
* API
|
||
* Diagnostics reporting
|
||
* Performance
|
||
* Pass more conformance tests
|
||
* You may start with https://github.com/Boshen/oxc/issues/36
|
||
|
||
## Parser Conformance
|
||
|
||
The `cargo coverage` command currently reports the following summary
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Test262 Summary:
|
||
AST Parsed : 43934/43934 (100.00%)
|
||
|
||
Babel Summary:
|
||
AST Parsed : 2045/2057 (99.42%)
|
||
|
||
TypeScript Summary:
|
||
AST Parsed : 4291/4861 (88.27%)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
(The parser is failing some of the TypeScript recoverable parser tests.)
|
||
|
||
## Linter Performance
|
||
|
||
See [benchmark](./benchmark/) for details. Hyperfine results are:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Benchmark 1: oxc
|
||
Time (mean ± σ): 30.9 ms ± 1.4 ms [User: 138.2 ms, System: 54.7 ms]
|
||
Range (min … max): 28.6 ms … 35.7 ms 83 runs
|
||
|
||
Benchmark 2: rome
|
||
Time (mean ± σ): 145.0 ms ± 2.8 ms [User: 674.9 ms, System: 69.9 ms]
|
||
Range (min … max): 141.5 ms … 151.8 ms 19 runs
|
||
|
||
Warning: Ignoring non-zero exit code.
|
||
|
||
Benchmark 3: eslint
|
||
Time (mean ± σ): 2.661 s ± 0.057 s [User: 4.076 s, System: 0.223 s]
|
||
Range (min … max): 2.593 s … 2.790 s 10 runs
|
||
|
||
Warning: Ignoring non-zero exit code.
|
||
|
||
Summary
|
||
'oxc' ran
|
||
4.70 ± 0.23 times faster than 'rome'
|
||
86.20 ± 4.35 times faster than 'eslint'
|
||
```
