The Web has evolved. So should JavaScript benchmarks.
Octane is a modern benchmark that measures a JavaScript engine's performance by running a suite of tests representative of today's complex and demanding web applications. Octane's goal is to measure the performance of JavaScript code found in large, real-world web applications.
Julia Map is a Julia set renderer built in HTML 5 and JavaScript. Each pixel requires the computation of a series of numbers and a measurement of the convergence or divergence of the series. Each image usually consists of millions of numbers. Modern browsers have optimized JavaScript execution up to a point where it is now possible to render fractals like the Julia sets in a few seconds.
"V8 is Google's open source high-performance JavaScript and WebAssembly engine, written in C++. It is used in Google Chrome, the open source browser from Google, and in Node.js, among others. It implements ECMAScript and WebAssembly, and runs on Windows 7 or later, macOS 10.12+, and Linux systems that use x64, IA-32, ARM, or MIPS processors. V8 can run standalone, or can be embedded into any C++ application."
WebRTC is a free, open project that enables web browsers with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple Javascript APIs. The WebRTC components have been optimized to best serve this purpose.
Drive Notepad is hosted by Google App Engine. It is heavily based on the Python verision of DrEdit, which is an example Google Drive app provided along with the SDK. The editor itself is an instance of the ace.js poject. CSS is provided by Bootstrap. JavaScript uses jQuery.
"V8 is Google's open source high-performance JavaScript engine, written in C++ and used in Google Chrome, the open source browser from Google. It implements ECMAScript as specified in ECMA-262, 3rd edition, and runs on Windows XP and Vista, Mac OS X 10.5+, and Linux systems that use IA-32, ARM or MIPS processors. V8 can run standalone, or can be embedded into any C++ application."
"AngularJS is a toolset for building the framework most suited to your application development. It is fully extensible and works well with other libraries. Every feature can be modified or replaced to suit your unique development workflow and feature needs."
Dartium is a special build of Chromium that includes the Dart VM. Using Dartium means you don't have to compile your code to JavaScript until you're ready to test on other browsers.
With this browser plugin you can permanently opt out of the DoubleClick cookie, which is an advertising cookie that Google uses. The plugin lets you keep your opt-out status for this browser even when you clear all cookies.
The project contains both Javascript code for a Firefox extension, and C++ code for an IE Add-on (dll).
Native Client is an open source technology that allows you to build web applications that seamlessly execute native compiled code inside the browser. Now, in addition to JavaScript, you can write new web apps in C and C++ as well as migrate existing desktop apps to a more flexible and open web platform. Native Client allows your web app to run native code modules that render 2D and 3D graphics, play audio, respond to mouse and keyboard events, run on multiple threads, and access memory directly-all without requiring users to install a plugin.
The Google Street View Image API lets you embed a static (non-interactive) Street View panorama or thumbnail into your web page, without the use of JavaScript. The viewport is defined with URL parameters sent through a standard HTTP request, and is returned as a static image.
