PythonMonkey enables developers to use Python code in JavaScript and vice versa with ease and virtually no performance loss.

The New Stack is a publication covering trends and technologies in cloud-native development, DevOps, and software delivery. Developers can learn about containerization, Kubernetes, and cloud computing, as well as explore topics such as microservices architecture, serverless computing, and continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines.

The New Stack

PythonMonkey is a groundbreaking JavaScript runtime embedded within Python, built on Mozilla's SpiderMonkey engine, created by Distributive to cut code maintenance costs and bridge the gap between JS and Python. It enables cross-language functionality, letting developers leverage Python packages from JS and vice versa with minimal performance loss. Key features include native support for WebAssembly, a just-in-time compiler, and a runtime environment similar to Node.js. PythonMonkey also offers improved cross-language coercion, stack trace handling, and a better developer experience. The project’s goals include seamless integration of JS and Python libraries and offering a unified development environment.
