There are several compilers/transpilers to high-level object languages, with either unrestricted Python, a restricted subset of Python, or a language similar to Python as the source language: Brython, [ 159 ] Transcrypt [ 160 ] [ 161 ] and Pyjs (latest release in 2012) compile Python to JavaScript .
