Will SIMD be implemented a standard of future ES versions?

ljharb commented 6 years ago

No, see https://github.com/tc39/proposals/blob/master/inactive-proposals.md.

SIMD is now back at stage 1, but implementations are not pursuing it and it seems unlikely that they will do so in the future.

@ljharb Thanks for the explanation!

@sasha240100 fyi. core api's that was part of simd.js are being proposed to be part of the webassembly standard now and there are implementations in progress. See https://github.com/WebAssembly/simd
