 The advantages of using the JavaScript engine are that it doesn't require loading a large WebAssembly file for Oniguruma and it is faster for some grammars (since the regular expressions run as native JavaScript).
 
-Although the JavaScript engine's Oniguruma emulation is quite robust, it's not guaranteed that the highlighting will be 100% the same in some edge cases. Additionally, a few grammars are unsupported.

 Please check the [compatibility table](/references/engine-js-compat) for the support status of languages you are using.
 
 The JavaScript engine is strict by default, and will throw an error if it encounters a pattern that it cannot convert. If mismatches are acceptable and you want best-effort results for unsupported grammars, you can enable the `forgiving` option to suppress any conversion errors:

 The JavaScript engine is best when running in the browser and in cases when you want to control the bundle size.
