About:
Hashlink is a high-performance virtual machine designed specifically for the Haxe programming language. It serves as a lightweight runtime that compiles Haxe code to C, offering a robust alternative to standard interpreters. Its main value proposition is delivering fast execution speeds and low memory overhead for Haxe applications.
Key Features:
  • High-performance C-based runtime
  • Garbage collection
  • Debugging capabilities with source maps
  • Cross-platform support
Use Cases:
  • Running Haxe-based games and applications
  • Developing high-performance web servers
  • Embedding Haxe logic into C/C++ projects
Alternatives:
  • Haxe Interpreters – Hashlink generally offers superior performance compared to pure Haxe interpreters.
  • Node.js – A general-purpose JS runtime; Hashlink is specialized for the Haxe ecosystem and type system.
