# Zen
Zen is a high-performance JavaScript runtime built in Rust. It executes code faster than Node.js and Deno, making it an efficient choice for server-side JavaScript applications.
## Features
- Fast execution of JavaScript code
- Cross-platform support (Linux and Windows)
- Built using Rust for safety and performance
- Multiple file execution and concurrency
- Blazingly fast multithreading
- Infinite amount of JS files to run concurrently
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
- Git
- Curl
- [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install)
- Docker (for containerization)
### Installation
To build and run Zen locally, follow these steps:
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/zen-js-run/zen.git
cd Zen
```
2. Install the project:
```bash
cargo install --path .
```
### Usage
You can run a JavaScript file using Zen with the following command:
```bash
zen input.js
```
Or run multiple files:
```bash
zen input.js input2.js input3.js
```
Zen can execute any amount of files you provide.
### Docker Setup
Zen can also be built and run using Docker. The provided Dockerfile allows you to create an image that contains both the Linux and Windows binaries of Zen.
1. Build the Docker image:
```bash
docker build -t zen .
```
2. Run the Zen application in a Docker container:
```bash
docker run --rm zen
```
### Dockerfile Explanation
The Dockerfile consists of two main stages:
1. **Builder Stage**:
- Uses the official Rust image to build the Zen application.
- Copies the source code and required files.
- Compiles the application for both Linux and Windows targets.
2. **Runtime Stage**:
- Uses a minimal Debian image to run the application.
- Copies the built binaries from the builder stage.
### Example
To run a JavaScript file named `script.js`, execute:
```bash
zen script.js
```
Or, using Docker:
```bash
docker run --rm zen script.js
```
