  • jupyterlite

    Wasm powered Jupyter running in the browser 💡

    • Jupyter runs natively in the browser now with JupyterLite: https://github.com/jupyterlite/jupyterlite It can use a native browser JS kernel, or some languages that have been converted to run in the browser with WASM (including a full python environment called pyodide).

    VS Code also runs natively in the browser now: https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2021/10/20/vscode-dev This uses a Chrome only (for now) filesystem access API to give the browser access to your native files--you can edit them entirely in the browser with nothing happening on a server.

    • WebAssembly is having/going to have threads

  • go

    The Go programming language

    • Go hasn't enabled it since it's still in proposal stages[1], Hence my question was regarding it's implementation using other languages.

  • Tokamak

    SwiftUI-compatible framework for building browser apps with WebAssembly and native apps for other platforms

    • I’ve been seriously impressed with Tokamak for Swift. Is this what you mean for browser native GUI?

  • webkit.js

    Pure JavaScript Port of WebKit

    • Well someone has already got WebKit to run in WASM[1] so hey, maybe it’s not that far off :D
