V8 is an open-source JavaScript engine written in C++ that Google released alongside the Chrome browser in 2008. It uses just-in-time compilation to turn JavaScript into machine code as it runs, and it also executes WebAssembly.

Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers, along with runtimes and frameworks such as Node.js and Electron, use V8 as their execution engine.
