A 116kb WASM of Blink that lets you run x86_64 Linux binaries in the browser
I'd love to integrate this into my desktop environment in the browser "OS" (https://github.com/DustinBrett/daedalOS). I already have v86 (https://github.com/copy/v86) for running general x86 iso/bin files and BoxedWine (http://www.boxedwine.org/) for 16/32 bit exe's. It would be cool to be able to drag and drop a Linux binary and just run it. I tried to do this with box86js (https://github.com/raoofha/box86js) but had little luck. Although as a non-Linux user, I am not sure where to get good examples/tests of binaries.

Patching GCC to Build Portable Executables
> Consider offering APE for x64 but then still producing ARM binaries the old fashioned way.
The recent version of cosmopolitan generates ARM binaries for Linux and MacOS (https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan#arm; mode aarch64). There is also blink that provides the x86-64 emulation layer for (APE and other) binaries on a variety of platforms (https://github.com/jart/blink).

Blink 1.0
Would love a second pair of eyes on the powerpc64le JIT, since it partially works but hangs on some tests. https://github.com/jart/blink/issues/17

Searchable Linux Syscall Table for x86 and x86_64
I've never used it, but https://github.com/jart/blink is pretty much that. It's tiny and:
> We regularly test that Blink is able run x86-64-linux binaries on the following platforms:
> Linux (x86, ARM, RISC-V, MIPS, PowerPC, s390x)
> macOS (x86, ARM)
> FreeBSD
> OpenBSD
> Cygwin

Blink virtual machine now supports running GUI programs
I wonder if blink could be used as a lightweight sandbox. Looking at PR46[0], it seems sandboxing is not one of the current features, but it would be cool to have a way to run arbitrary code (e.g: Python) in a sandboxed environment. Even cooler if you could limit the amount of memory/CPU used.
