Re:STPyV8 – Python3 and JavaScript Interop with V8 by lloeki on Tuesday December 31, 2019 @11:56PM (#21926726)
Interesting project, glad to see some movement there!

Over here we have a high interest in running JS code efficiently within multiple host languages. To that end we ported Ruby’s mini_racer to Python.

https://github.com/sqreen/PyMiniRacer

We also maintain a mini_racer fork and regularly try to backport performance improvements upstream.

We also support alternative platforms such as Alpine/musl and Solaris. One of our main pain points is that the whole libv8 tooling/build system is ever changing and terribly self-serving to Google, so as much as we want to improve support for additional platforms upstream, it’s a tall order to have our hacks to build for those cleaned up and merged there.
