More features
PyPy has many secondary features and semi-independent projects. We will mention here:
- the .NET backend: you get a version of pypy-c that runs natively in the .NET/CLI VM. Of particular interest is the cli-jit branch, in which you can make a version of pypy-c which also contains a high-level JIT compiler (it compiles your Python programs Just in Time into CLR bytecodes, which are in turn compiled natively by the VM).
- the Java backend: PyPy can run on the Java VM, but more care is needed to finish this project. Writing a backend for our high-level JIT compiler would be excellent. Contact us!
- Other languages: available in a separate part of the repository, we implemented other languages too: Prolog (almost complete), as well as Smalltalk, JavaScript, Io, Scheme and Gameboy.
