QuickJS is really cool! You can use it to embed JS code in a native binary, which is nice if you're trying to use a NodeJS library outside of the JS ecosystem.

I put together a proof of concept for this about a year ago, in case this is a use case you currently have: https://github.com/ijustlovemath/jescx

We’ve been considering this library at work for a performance sensitive application (real time game). Can anyone here speak to the performance and memory usage of QuickJS?

Out of curiosity, why not Lua?

Is Lua performance sensitive? Other guess is Javascript is much more programmer friendly than Lua.
