Introducing the ‘Web Languages’ Team
For a long time at Igalia, we've had our fantastic Compilers team, which consisted of people who worked on a wide array of projects — all the way from Low Level Compilers (LLVM) to JS Compilers (V8, SpiderMonkey, etc), JS Transpilers (Babel), NodeJS as well as foundational JS libraries (PDF.js).
This big-tent approach served us well for a long time. However, with expansion of our work in the Web Languages space, we realized it was finally time to form the new 'Web Languages' team which has a sharper focus on shaping JavaScript standards via TC39, WHATWG, and WinterTC.
You can visit our about page for more details, and read more about our work from last year in this blog post.
This is a new chapter for us, we’re very excited to grow this dedicated Web Languages focus to keep expanding our scope and impact on the standards and tooling across the ecosystem.
