Js_of_ocaml is a compiler of ocaml bytecode to javascript. it makes it possible to run ocaml programs in a web browser. its key features are the following:
* the whole language, and most of the standard library are
supported;
* the generated code can be used with any web server and browser;
* you can use a standard installation of ocaml to compile your
programs. in particular, you do not have to recompile a library to
use it with js_of_ocaml. you just have to link your program with a
specific library to interface with the browser apis.
this package contains runtime libraries that may be needed by server-side programs communicating with clients compiled with js_of_ocaml using json.
