What is JerryScript?

No, it is not mispelled JavaScript. It is to (Internet of Things) IoT as JavaScript is to the Web. JerryScript is lightweight JavaScript to run on very constrained devices such as microcontrollers.

Just see how lightweight it is:

Only few kilobytes of RAM available to the engine (<64 br="" kb="" ram="">Constrained ROM space for the code of the engine (<200 kb="" p="" rom="">
JerryScript engine supports on-device, executio and provide access to periferals via JavaScript.

Presently it is supported officially only on Ubuntu 14.04+.

If you have the above go here and test drive:
