Compatibility

Compatibility

njs is created in compliance with ECMAScript 5.1 (strict mode) with some ECMAScript 6 and later extensions. The compliance is still evolving.

Definitions of njs specific properties and methods not compliant with ECMAScript can be found in Reference. Definitions of njs properties and methods compliant with ECMAScript can be found in ECMAScript specification.
