    I'm particularly curious on what parts cheerp adds to their clang+llvm base. Presumably it's something like the C standard target library for WASM/JS?

    For reference, here's examples of what you could do with the baseline clang with wasm (but not JS?) [1] [2] [3], referenced from a similar thread on HN.

  • The Tools I Use to Write Books (2018)
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 16 May 2022
    I've used a similar pipeline to create "books for code and infrastructure". A/k/a coding in a somewhat literate programming style. Similar to what is described here:

    gemini://gemini.robrohan.com/2022-04-23-narrative-programming.md

    With output that looks similar to this: https://github.com/robrohan/wefx/blob/main/docs/manual.pdf

    Using a github action like this: https://github.com/robrohan/wefx/blob/main/.github/workflows...

    (most of the code borrowed from those projects)

    You can do it with just plain markdown files and use directories for chapters / organization if you're just going for prose.

    I've thought about using the process to try to make open textbooks where you can mix and match chapters, but I don't have any experience in that field.

    Anyway, can confirm, it's an incredibly useful process.

    Not trying to steal your thunder, but here is another nostdlib clang -> wasm example with malloc, a few math functions, rand, and writing to a canvas doing animation.

    I haven’t seen this version mentioned in the thread - if you don’t need a lot of precision, here is a simple 4 line version[1] and here’s how it works[2].

    Not sure who initially came up with it.
