After having a quick look, I found that they use Emscripten and it is capable of compiling it to JS (asm.js) as well as WebAssembly. So the whole Pyodide stack can be compiled to JS.
I'm wondering how the performance looks like when running Pyodide stack on JS.
- mesaframe 8y agoASM.js is not the JS you use. It's follows a different spec, and it's way faster than JS but slower than WASM.
- kbumsik 8y agoI'm not sure how that matters. It is still JS, it can run on any JS engine even without transpiling. I just wanted to know the exact performance difference between the two different compiled outputs.
