JSIL is currently in partial maintenance mode (due to time constraints on the maintainer's part), but bug reports and questions are still actively responded to. Pull requests still welcome!

<h1><img src="images/jsil_48px.png" id="logo">JSIL</h1>
<p>JSIL is a compiler that transforms .NET applications and libraries from their native executable format - <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Intermediate_Language">CIL bytecode</a> - into standards-compliant, cross-browser JavaScript. You can take this JavaScript and run it in a web browser or any other modern JavaScript runtime. Unlike other cross-compiler tools targeting JavaScript, JSIL produces readable, easy-to-debug JavaScript that resembles the code a developer might write by hand, while still maintaining the behavior and structure of the original .NET code. Because JSIL transforms bytecode, it can support most .NET-based languages - C# to JavaScript and VB.NET to JavaScript work right out of the box.</p>

Because JSIL transforms bytecode, it can support most .NET-based languages - C# to JavaScript and VB.NET to JavaScript work right out of the box, and F# is partially supported. Nearly the entire feature set of the .NET runtime (including pointers and P/Invoke) is supported, and most of the open-source BCL is translatable by the compiler.</p>

<li>Build <tt>JSIL.sln</tt> in Visual Studio 2010. <span class="aside">(Express is fine.)</span></li>
<li>Build <tt>JSIL.sln</tt> in Visual Studio 2015. <span class="aside">(Community Edition is sufficient.)</span></li>
<li>Run <tt>JSILc.exe</tt> on your application. <span class="aside">(<a href="https:/sq/JSIL/wiki">See the wiki for help</a>.)</span></li>
<li>Marvel at convoluted error messages! <span class="aside">(JSIL is still in development. You will hit bugs.)</span></li>
</ol>
<h3>Contribute to JSIL</h3>
<ol>
<li><a href="https:/sq/JSIL">Fork JSIL on GitHub</a>. <span class="aside">(Working locally from a clone is okay too.)</span></li>
<li>Write tests for bugs or new features! <span class="aside">(Without tests, JSIL would always be broken.)</span></li>
<li>Fix broken tests! <span class="aside">(Adding a test for a bug is helpful even if you can't fix it.)</span></li>
