    There are many options, but what worked best for me is compiling with cargo-wasi and loading the resulting Wasm file with browser_wasi_shim. Using wasm32-wasi instead of wasm32-unknown-unknown requires a bit more work (the communication with JS has to be set up manually), but gives the flexibility of having just a Wasm file that can be dropped in and loaded dynamically. (There's wit-bindgen for generating wrapping code according to an interface definition but I didn't have much success with it.)

    The webassembly-language-runtimes is focused on providing WASI-based language interpreters, what would require a WASI polyfill at the browser level (https://wasi.dev/polyfill/) and (https://github.com/bjorn3/browser_wasi_shim).

    Pyodide is certainly another option, but is emscripten based, not based in webassembly-language-runtimes or WASI.

    Indeed, some people are doing this:

    - WASI once had an official polyfill https://wasi.dev/polyfill/, now apparently succeeded by https://github.com/bjorn3/browser_wasi_shim

    - wasmer-js provides a JS polyfill for WASI https://docs.wasmer.io/integrations/js/wasi

    - Cloudflare has a WIP polyfill https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-wasi

    I'm generally leery of non-temporary polyfills, so I'm not sure that any of these feel like a long-term viable option for me.
