ChakraCore is the core part of Chakra, the high-performance JavaScript engine that powers Windows applications written in HTML/CSS/JS and used to power Microsoft Edge. ChakraCore supports Just-in-time (JIT) compilation of JavaScript for x86/x64/ARM, garbage collection, and a wide range of the latest JavaScript features. ChakraCore also supports the [JavaScript Runtime (JSRT) APIs](https://github.com/Microsoft/ChakraCore/wiki/JavaScript-Runtime-%28JSRT%29-Overview), which allows you to easily embed ChakraCore in your applications.
## Future of ChakraCore
As you may have heard Microsoft Edge no longer uses Chakra. Microsoft will continue to provide security updates for Chakracore 1.11 until 9th March 2021 but do not intend to support it after that.
However ChakraCore is planned to continue as a community project targeted primarily at embedded use cases. We hope to produce future releases with new features and enhancements to support such use cases. We also would like to invite any interested parties to be involved in this project. For further details please see the following draft planning documents:
[Overall plan](https://github.com/chakra-core/org/blob/master/ChakraCore%20Future%20Plan.md)
[Version 1.12 plan](https://github.com/chakra-core/org/blob/master/Release%201.12%20plan.md)

## Security
If you believe you have found a security issue in ChakraCore, please share it with us privately following the guidance at the Microsoft [Security TechCenter](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/ff852094). Reporting it via this channel helps minimize risk to projects built with ChakraCore.

## Building ChakraCore
You can build ChakraCore on Windows 7 SP1 or above, and Windows Server 2008 R2 or above, with either Visual Studio 2015 or 2017 with C++ support installed. Once you have Visual Studio installed:
* Clone ChakraCore through ```git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/ChakraCore.git```
* Open `Build\Chakra.Core.sln` in Visual Studio
* Build Solution
More details in [Building ChakraCore](https://github.com/Microsoft/ChakraCore/wiki/Building-ChakraCore).
Alternatively, see [Getting ChakraCore binaries](https://github.com/Microsoft/ChakraCore/wiki/Getting-ChakraCore-binaries) for pre-built ChakraCore binaries.
## Using ChakraCore
Once built, you have a few options for how you can use ChakraCore:
* The most basic is to test the engine is running correctly with the *ch.exe* binary. This app is a lightweight hosting of JSRT that you can use to run small applications. After building, you can find this binary in:
* `Build\VcBuild\bin\${platform}_${configuration}`
* (e.g. `Build\VcBuild\bin\x64_debug`)
* You can [embed ChakraCore](https://github.com/Microsoft/ChakraCore/wiki/Embedding-ChakraCore) in your applications - see [documentation](https://github.com/Microsoft/ChakraCore/wiki/Embedding-ChakraCore) and [samples](https://aka.ms/chakracoresamples).
* Finally, you can also use ChakraCore as the JavaScript engine in Node. You can learn more by reading how to use [Chakra as Node's JS engine](https://github.com/Microsoft/node)
_A note about using ChakraCore_: ChakraCore is the foundational JavaScript engine, but it does not include the external APIs that make up the modern JavaScript development experience. For example, DOM APIs like ```document.write()``` are additional APIs that are not available by default and would need to be provided. For debugging, you may instead want to use ```print()```.
Alternatively, if you are using the [vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/) dependency manager you can download and install ChakraCore with CMake integration in a single command:
* vcpkg install chakracore
