About

Improved JavaScript editing mode for GNU Emacs (description here).

For some of the latest changes, see latest user-visible changes.

Installation

The stable versions are hosted at GNU ELPA (M-x list-packages).

You can also install the latest development version from MELPA.

Emacs 22 and 23

This version requires Emacs 24 and cl-lib (either built-in or from GNU ELPA above). For a backward compatible version, check out the branch emacs23.

Bugs

• See broken syntax highlighting and timer errors? Recently upgraded Emacs from version 24.2 or earlier? Try reinstalling or byte-recompiling the package.

• Any indentation problems should be reported with M-x report-emacs-bug (please try reproducing them with js-mode first, for clarity). Starting with Emacs 25, js2-mode delegates indentation to the indentation engine of js-mode.

Please report other problems at http://github.com/mooz/js2-mode/issues.
