I made a utility that cleans up your Mac desktop and uses Tesseract to extract text from screenshots. This makes it really easy to find screenshots by searching for a line of text you remember.

Emscripten can target both WebAssembly and JavaScript. The JavaScript option uses wasm2js - it compiles first to wasm, then compiles that to JS.

The emcc flag -sWASM=0 disables the wasm final output and emits JS instead.

It's annoying to find out the actual code that does the OCR is not in this repo after looking through the entire thing. It's just a bunch of scheduling and worker logic and for some reason the JS is written twice once for the browser and once for Node.
The actual code that does the OCR is wraped and included via this package [0] which just wraps the original Tesseract in C++ [1] using wasm. Shameful title.

EasyOCR
Ready-to-use OCR with 80+ supported languages and all popular writing scripts including Latin, Chinese, Arabic, Devanagari, Cyrillic and etc.
I've had good results with EasyOCR, much better than Tesseract. I agree with you, Tesseract has performed very poorly in my experience.
