I'm currently using otto for the embedded JS interpreter for Doodad scripts. It's a pure Go runtime for JS but only supports old-style ES5 syntax (no let or const, etc.)

Some ideas for possible replacement:

QuickJS

https://github.com/lithdew/quickjs

A JavaScript runtime written in C with ES2020 syntax. According to the Go page, should be easily cross-compilable with gcc and mingw. Looks like you can bind Go functions to be callable from the interpreter.

Honorable Mentions

goja

https://github.com/dop251/goja

Seems in the same lines as Otto and only ES5 syntax.

Alternate Languages (Python etc.)

Starlark

https://github.com/google/starlark-go

Starlark is a Python-like language from Google.

Switched to goja in 4d08bf1d85 which has some useful ES6 syntax support already.
