Translating JavaScript source code into other programming languages #16

Open jarble opened 8 years ago

jarble commented 8 years ago

Jiphy is an excellent tool for translating Python source code into JavaScript and vice-versa, but it doesn't appear to generate code in other languages yet. I think we could make this translator more versatile since my own Transpiler-generator system can translate JavaScript and Java code into Ruby and several other programming languages.

We could make Jiphy compatible with more languages by writing a Python version of transpiler-generator. Would this be a good approach to this problem?

I was looking for primarily a Python <=> C/C++ converter. Does your program do that, @jarble ?

@testitem Transpiler-generator isn't finished yet, but there are several other ways to automatically convert JavaScript programs into C or C++.
