Javascript dialects are basically different languages which follow the style and the semantics of javascript.

This library includes the following dialects:

Standard Javascript (js): Common ECMAScript 5.

function pow(a, b){
    for (var r = a, n = 0; n < b; n++) {
        r = r * a
    }
    return r
}

function head(arr){
    return arr.slice(0, 1);
}

Go-Script (gs): A clone of Go syntax without the type stuff.

func pow(a, b){
    for r := a, n := 0; n < b; n++ {
        r = r * a
    }
    return r
}

func head(arr){
    return arr[0:1]
}

To register dialects as Node's require.extensions, you can use jsjs.register:

var jsjs = require('jsjs');

jsjs.register('gs'); // Go-Script registered
var gos = require('./go-test.gs');

jsjs.register(jsjs.dialects); // registers all supported jsjs dialects
