Consider stooping down to ES5. #26

Closed dglazkov closed 9 years ago

dglazkov commented 10 years ago

Given that Blink is rapidly traveling down the path of actually implementing HTML elements as custom elements, we should consider removing traceur :cry: and just using yer grandfather's JS, so then we could be a downstream for Blink.

Another idea is to just port this project to Blink and continue work there.

The ideal thing for Blink at this moment would be ES5 with AMD as the module system. We have a simple AMD implementation in Chromium via gin, which we'll probably want to use in Blink-in-JS land so that we can interface with Mojo.

We want to eventually move to ES6 modules, but we're not that far in the future.

I think this project should explore an alternative avenue. The Blink-in-JS work seems to be moving further and further away from actual custom elements, in favor of the binding layer. As such I don't think integration concerns are what we should be worried about.

In any case, we can always use the Traceur output in such a project, instead of the raw source files.

Ok. We still need to figure a path to converge the two.
