Transcrypt

What is Transcrypt?

The heart of the toolchain that allows the magic to happen is Transcrypt, a pip-installed Python-to-JavaScript transpiler. It takes the Python code that we write and converts that Python code into a JavaScript file. That file can then be loaded into a web browser, which allows the code to be run without any browser plug-in or large JavaScript runtime download required. Since the code is pre-compiled into JavaScript before it is downloaded to the browser, application performance is not compromised.
