Convert xtext code to JavaScript [message #1737328]

Hi,
I have xtext code (like Java, I used xbase) and I want to translate it to JavaScript. Which is the easiest way?
I'm already generated java code.
Is it easier to create JavaScript code directly from xtext code or from already existing Java code?

Thank you.

since there is no out of the box solution i think translating the java code to js would be easier if there is a tool that does this.

Sounds more like a use case for xtext web support

I understood that it is only the Web editor for writing DSL? I want to convert my DSL to JavaScript. My DSL is java like.

Depending on what you do in yourdsl it may work. Make sure you use the gwt
version of xbase
