The Oxidation Compiler is building a set of tools for the JavaScript / TypeScript language.
These tools include:
* Parser - Done
* Linter - Work in progress
* Formatter
* Transpiler
* Minifier
## Goals
The goal of this project is to:
* Create a *really* fast native program by using the Rust programming language
* Provide the basic building blocks for creating your own tools by having good API designs
* Provide good documentation on learning Rust and compiler techniques
> Performance issues are considered as bugs in this project.
## Contributing
This project is an invitation for you to come and learn Rust with us.
Contributions are welcome and highly appreciated. To get started, check out [CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md).
If you do not have the time to contribute code, you can still participate by:
* star and watch this project
* join us on [Discord](https://discord.gg/9uXCAwqQZW)
* [follow me on twitter](https://twitter.com/boshen_c)
* provide your wisdom in [discussions](https://github.com/Boshen/oxc/discussions)
## 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:
* Performance
* API
* Pass more conformance tests
## 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 on an Intel i7 6-core are:
```
Benchmark 1: oxc
Time (mean ± σ): 34.6 ms ± 1.3 ms [User: 160.1 ms, System: 67.2 ms]
Range (min … max): 31.8 ms … 40.9 ms 75 runs
Benchmark 2: rome
Time (mean ± σ): 147.4 ms ± 3.7 ms [User: 695.4 ms, System: 72.4 ms]
Range (min … max): 141.9 ms … 153.8 ms 20 runs
Benchmark 3: eslint
Time (mean ± σ): 2.905 s ± 0.185 s [User: 4.387 s, System: 0.254 s]
Range (min … max): 2.710 s … 3.287 s 10 runs
Summary
'oxc' ran
4.26 ± 0.20 times faster than 'rome'
83.94 ± 6.25 times faster than 'eslint'
```
