I've looked at a few alternatives, and here are some I've picked out as possible candidates:

  • Javet: I have prior experience attempting to migrate the plugin from J2V8 to Javet, however I encountered quite a few issues. Mainly due to the way that Javet resolves modules struggles with importing NPM packages dynamically which is a feature I need to have; however, this may be remedied with a tool such as JNPM.
  • GrallVM: GrallVM has extensive support for embedding languages. The only part of which I am unsure on is whether or not GrallVM requires use of its other features (i.e. native compilation) in order to use its support for embedding languages. I will test.

These are the main two candidates I am currently considering. If anyone else has any suggestions that would be very appreciated!!
