# ⚡️ QuickJS - A mighty JavaScript engine Friendly [QuickJS] fork focused on reigniting the project. ## Overview In October 2023 [@bnoordhuis] and [@saghul] decided to fork the [QuickJS] project with the aim of reigniting it. They reached out to the original authors ([@bellard] and [@chqrlie]) about their intentions. As of December 2023 the initial goal was somewhat accomplished. [@bellard] resumed working on the project and both parties have been pulling patches from each other since. As of early 2024 both projects agree the proper path forward involves merging both projects and combining the efforts. While that may take a while, since both projects diverged in certain areas, there is willingness to go in this direction from both sides.
