= Js_of_ocaml = Js_of_ocaml is a compiler of OCaml bytecode to Javascript. It makes it possible to run Ocaml programs in a Web browser. Its key features are the following: * The whole language, and most of the standard library are supported. * The compiler is easy to install: it only depends on [[http://projects.camlcity.org/projects/findlib.html|Findlib]] and [[wiki(21):|Lwt]]. * The generated code is independant of [[wiki(15):|Eliom]] and the [[wiki(12):|Ocsigen server]]. You can use it with any Web server. * You can use a standard installation of OCaml to compile your programs. In particular, you do not have to recompile a library to use it with Js_of_ocaml. You just have to link your program with a specific library to interface with the browser APIs.
