This is interesting. You can use it as an alternative to v8 for node.js

Microsoft is already working on lighting Node.js with ChakraCore.

See https://github.com/Microsoft/node

Ironically Microsoft had to create a V8 C++ API facade over Chakra in order for Node to compile with it.

https://github.com/Microsoft/node/tree/chnext/deps/chakrashi...

It's interesting that the license of the Chakra shim is the V8 license:

https://github.com/Microsoft/node/blob/chnext/deps/chakrashi...

That's correct. V8 license is required in v8-*.h files because they are v8 header files that chakra shim uses. The implementation files has Microsoft license.

E.g. All files in https://github.com/Microsoft/node/tree/chnext/deps/chakrashi...

Disclaimer: I work for Chakra team (powering node.js)

I see Chakra has caught to up Dec 30, 2015 with the nodejs tree. Which branch are you basing the fork against?

We are basing it off nodejs/master - https://github.com/nodejs/node
