TIScript is a programming language and an implementation of a compiler, a virtual machine running bytecodes and a runtime.

TIScript uses well known, time-proven and popular language constructs of ECMAScript (JavaScript).

Here is Comparison of TIScript and JavaScript

Features:

• TIScript supports JavaScript runtime behavior as closely as possible.
• TIScript uses JavaScript notation and syntax in full but with some additions, e.g. lambda functions, types (classes and namespaces) and properties.

• TIScript uses a simplified prototype model so that

'string'.prototype === String evaluates to true in TIScript

• TIScript supports template content generation similar to PHP and ASP:

some literal text <% script inclusion %> some more literal text

• TIScript has builtin and native persistence with the classes Storage and Index. We use the term JSON-DB as it is a database which stores JSON objects. We believe that TIScript is the first language to use a JSON-DB idiom.

SVN source distribution includes a makefile and a project file for Dev-C++ (Bloodshed Software.) If you have Dev-C++ and/or GCC/MinGW installed then you can compile it out of the box.

TIScript is used as a scripting engine of the Sciter.

Language and Runtime

Our gratitude:

• to David Betz for his BOB language implementation. TIScript is derived from BOB in many aspects.
• to Konstantin Knizhnik for his DyBASE engine - core of the TIScript persistence.
