### Introduction<a name="section190813718209"></a>

ARK JS Runtime is the runtime used by JavaScript \(JS\) applications on OpenHarmony. It consists of the JS object allocator, garbage collector \(GC\), a standard library compliant with ECMAScript specifications, ARK bytecode interpreter, inline caches that store hidden classes, and the ARK Foreign Function Interface \(AFFI\).

For more information, see: [ARK Runtime Subsystem](https://gitee.com/openharmony/docs/blob/master/en/readme/ARK-Runtime-Subsystem.md).

## Constraints<a name="section119744591305"></a>

* Only the bytecode file generated by the ARK JS frontend can be run.
* Only support ES2015 standard and strict mode ("use strict").
* Don't support dynamically create functions via string (e.g., new Function("console.log(1))).

### Available APIs<a name="section175841548124517"></a>

For details, see  [NAPI](https://gitee.com/openharmony/ace_napi/blob/master/README.md).

### Usage Guidelines<a name="section129654513264"></a>

For details about how to generate JS bytecodes, see  [Using the Toolchain](docs/using-the-toolchain.md).

To run bytecodes: 
```
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=out/hispark_taurus/clang_x64/ark/ark:out/hispark_taurus/clang_x64/ark/ark_js_runtime:out/hispark_taurus/clang_x64/thirdparty/icu:prebuilts/clang/ohos/linux-x86_64/llvm/lib ./out/hispark_taurus/clang_x64/ark/ark_js_runtime/ark_js_vm helloworld.abc
```
