This is one of the most impressive things I've seen lately built on top of WebAssembly.
I remember some years ago (10ish?) there was a push of Operating Systems in the browser, but they all mostly became unused long-term because the browser APIs where not as powerful then as they are now. I think those new APIs along with Wasm support changes completely that assumption.
Good work!
- DustinBrett 5y agoThanks! I have been inspired by Web Desktops of the past. It was indeed more popular about a decade ago. I am hoping it's having a resurgence.
- epolanski 5y agoBut wasm doesn't provide those kind of APIs, anything we see here should be available on JS too.
- tehlike 5y agowasm comes into play for things like dos emulator.
- syrusakbary 5y agoYou are completely right. Let me rephrase things a bit so it's more clear!
