The Future of Numerical Computing in JavaScript
JavaScript is evolving beyond web development and into the realm of high-performance numerical computing. In this talk, we’ll explore the current landscape of scientific computing in JavaScript, compare its performance with Python and C, and discuss what’s missing. Through live demos – including AI, real-time data processing, and mathematical computing – we’ll see how libraries like stdlib and a few others are shaping the future.

What if we could use all the advanced mathematical functions, data analysis and visualization tools, etc., inside our browser, with JavaScript, instead of relying on python libraries such as numpy and scipy, without much degradation of performance? Yes, that is possible - with stdlib, which is a standard library for javascript and node.js.
