Specificationhttps://explainers-by-googlers.github.io/explicit-
javascript-compile-hints-file-based


We don't typically ship features with specs on personal or Google-owned 
repos. 
I think it would be good to try and move this to an incubation venue (e.g. 
WICG). 
This would be a better place from an IPR perspective (i.e. allow 
contributions outside of Google), and will help us validate that this is 
something that has at least some industry support.



Summary

Allow attaching information about which functions should be eager parsed & 
compiled in JavaScript files. The information will be encoded as magic 
comments. We'll first target launching the file-based explicit compile 
hints, and as a follow up, investigate selecting individual functions for 
eager compilation.

Risks


Interoperability and Compatibility

No interoperability / compatibility risks. Other browsers are likely to 
ignore the hints if they perceive they cannot benefit from them. Ignoring 
the hint is allowed behavior. We plan to make the hints generic though, so 
that other browsers can later start to support them too, e.g., if they 
implement background parsing / compilation.


*Gecko*: N/A (https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/780)

*WebKit*: N/A (https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/172)

*Web developers*: Positive Positive signals from partners who want to use 
compile hints to eager-compile core JS files.

*Other signals*:

WebView application risks

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that 
it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?



Debuggability



Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, 
Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)?Yes

Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests 
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>
?No

The feature doesn't trigger any functional changes and cannot be tested by 
WPT.

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or 
interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues 
in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may 
introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of 
the API in a non-backward-compatible way).
