Compiling on the client side would be nice.
My use case is building an IDE.
I'm also looking at:
beeware/batavia#294
Currently it seems I'm limited to Rapydscript, Skulpt or Brython.
Comments welcome.
Thanks!

Hi Sebastian,
compiling on the client would mean replacing all the parts of the Python's standard library that JavaScripthon is using to parse the source code with something that runs on JavaScript, just to name the first thing that comes to mind. That's a lot of work and frankly I don't have so much interest in it, but I'm happy to accept contributions :-)

Thanks for your answer! I'm still a bit new but your answer helps assess the project. As I learn, perhaps sometime it will be feasible!
