Short version: Is anyone aware of any attempts at writing a program to play go in javascript?
Long version: I am a longtime (4-5dan) go player and hobbiest programmer and wanted to try exploring some of the challenges around writing a go playing program. However, javascript is by far my strongest coding language and I didn't think it would be wise to dive into a less familiar language at the same time I'm learning about lots of other new things like MCTS. I know there's a performance penalty for a language like js, but since my first attempts will probably be quite crude anyway, this seems like something I can defer until later. With all that said, do you know of any other js go playing programs that could provide some good initial stubs/ideas as I try to dive in? I'd be particularly interested if anyone has already made a link between gogui and a javascript program. Thanks!
