Possible to get the V8 JavaScript engine version number in JavaScript in Chrome

Question

I see that the most stable release for V8 is 3.26.9 I'm wondering if it is possible to get this version number in JavaScript directly, or even find the version number that Chrome is using somehow. Any way to do this?

Answer 1

Not directly via Javascript no, but you could map each Chrome version to the V8 engine.

To find the v8 version that Chrome is using, simply look it up using the URI: chrome://version/
