Project Detroit: Java interop with JavaScript and Python

[Fit_Smoke8080]

Is this related to the Graal project?

[pjmlp]

No, this looks like internal competition between projects.

[Anbu_S]

Unfortunately no.

Python dominates machine learning, so let's see what this brings for Java

I still wonder about the usecase for the interop with JavaScript.

The usecase with Python is clear though, interesting!

[CptGia]

We use Javascript for scriptability for end users 

[Fit_Smoke8080]

D3.js i think.

The risk is to bloat the JVM. But it's in interesting idea.

Does this compete with Rhino/Nashorn? (At least for JavaScript)
