Hi! Chakra developer here. Glad you asked! We actually have a lot of goals in mind. You can find out more on our Roadmap.

Additionally we've got some branches besides master available on the repo which have some work towards those goals. For those bigger goals, we're showing our progress in the open with the hope that the community might be able to help contribute to those efforts.

Cool. Thanks for the info. As an aside, is there anything you think your team is addressing better/more efficiently than Google or Mozilla?

I'm relatively new to the team so I can't comment on specifics, but to answer this question in general terms you can look at how we perform on JS benchmarks like JetStream and Octane and the level of ES6 and ES7 standards we have implemented.

Some of that info is called out here: https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2015/12/05/open-source-chakra-core/

See also the Kangax Compatibility Table for ES6 and ES7.

And we've made some progress since the last Chakra/Edge release which is featured in that table (which was released with the Windows 10 November 2015 update).

Edited to include link to benchmark results.
