Description-en: SpiderMonkey JavaScript library - development headers
SpiderMonkey is the code-name for Mozilla Firefox's C++ implementation of
JavaScript. It is intended to be embedded in other applications
that provide host environments for JavaScript.
.
This package contains the header files which are
needed for developing SpiderMonkey embedders.
.
This library is intended for use in contexts where only trusted
JavaScript code will be run, such as GNOME's gjs, Cinnamon's cjs, and
polkit's rules parsing. It should not be used to run untrusted JavaScript
from web pages: use a security-supported implementation such as Firefox,
Chrome or WebKitGTK's JavaScriptCore instead.
