As quoted from the offical website http://www.tensorflow.org/
we’re hoping to entice you to contribute SWIG interfaces to your favorite language -- be it Go, Java, Lua, Javascript, or R.
I am new to this whole SWIG thing but searched around and found this. http://www.swig.org/Doc3.0/Javascript.html
Not really sure how this works. Do we need to write swig interface file specifically for Javascript or is it auto-generated when running some commands or is somebody already working on this (this would be awesome) ?

Just starting out on one, but new to writing a nodejs addon. Checking out the swig interface files to see if they're going to be helpful, or if I should just use the c++ API.

@nuchi Great work! and I know another WebAssemble research on TensorFlow at here:
https://medium.com/@tomasreimers/compiling-tensorflow-for-the-browser-f3387b8e1e1cGlad to see that there's official progress on this. I'd love to have fast, parallel GPU compute power at my fingertips with the ease and composability of JS.
I started working on a NodeJS binding for TensorFlow a while ago, but a haven't had much free time to devote to it lately.
The concept is similar to @jart's suggested approach.
I had three goals in mind for the project:
1. Don't require building or installing tensorflow
Instead, it should download and use the pre-built, multi-platform python binaries and download any needed source files on the fly.
2. Don't require a complete C++ or JS reproduction or abstraction of the API
Instead, it should provide a complete 1-to-1 interface with the C API, providing convenient JS abstractions as much as possible.
3. Don't maintain the C API bindings by hand
Instead, it should use a swig script to map the core data structures between Tensorflow/stdc++/V8/node and the rest will follow.
I got pretty far along with this, but last I remember a was having issues with TF_Session related segfaults.
Right now it's just collecting dust, so if someone wants to jump in and help with this I'd gladly accept PRs.
Closing as this is resolved
