  Racket to WebAssembly Compiler (by GrantMatejka)

  I built rasm (https://github.com/GrantMatejka/rasm) to compile racket to wasm. Definitely not production grade, but fun nonetheless

• s7-playground

  1 39 10.0 JavaScript

  Try s7 scheme in your browser, powered by WebAssembly

  This project is very exciting. In the meantime, there are a couple of options:

  BiwaScheme: https://www.biwascheme.org/

  Advantages: written in JavaScript, with excellent JS interop. Project has some history.

  Disadvantages: slower than S7 (though still plenty fast for many uses), less-complete (e.g., no syntax-rules or syntax-case, though it does have its own define-macro).

  S7 Scheme: https://cm-gitlab.stanford.edu/bil/s7

  Written in C, but can be transpiled to WASM (see https://github.com/actonDev/s7-playground/ )

  Advantages: This project also has some history. Considerably faster than BiwaScheme.

  Disadvantages: JS interop is clumsier (basically the same issues as JS interop with any WASM code... this could probably be mitigated considerably if someone wanted to take the time).

  Discontinued A self-hosting Scheme to WebAssembly compiler

  

  https://github.com/google/schism

  For some reason, Google was working on a Scheme WASM compiler, which they got self-hosting. It was then abandoned. I don't really know what they were trying to accomplish with that project.

  Tracking WebAssembly proposals (by WebAssembly)

  

  The proposal was recently bumped to stage 4 (the penultimate stage) with at least a couple of runtimes working on implementing (besides v8, which has supported it for quite awhile now)
