Re:Is eval evil? Just-in-time compiling by jancsika on Monday November 19, 2018 @05:49PM (#18490443)
The answer to the question (consistent with all headline questions) is "no."

The article even mentions JSON.parse which itself relied on eval.

Does JSON.parse still rely on eval under the hood?

Regardless... a wildly popular method used to propagate the most popular data format relied on eval. At least for a time. Nothing evil happened as a result.
