I did not realize there IS an Emscripten port already, sorry. Nevertheless, I put build instructions in my fork here https://github.com/midzer/sdl-sopwith/tree

- speps 3y agoThere wasn't one, but just build instructions don't make a Show HN.
- rendx 3y agoWhat makes you think that? I don't see that reflected in the rules. "Show" rules say nothing about how much effort one perceives someone put into something. To quote what I think are relevant rules for this discussion: "Show HN is for something you've made that other people can play with." - check "The project must be something you've worked on personally and which you're around to discuss." - check
- pvg 3y agoShow HN is for original work other people can try out and provide feedback. The bar to 'original' is pretty low (a non-trivial port meets it, a Learner's First Project usually meets it, etc) but a straight fork-and-recompile stretches the meaning of 'worked on' to the point of meaninglessness. You can't really respond to feedback if you didn't make the thing you're showhning.
- ricardobeat 3y ago"something you've worked on personally" pretty clearly does not cover pubolishing a completed project from someone else on a new platform.

- speps 3y agoMy point was that it could have been a PR on the original repository, hosted by the original author, and that would have been a nice Show HN even if posted by the person who helped build it for the web. Contribute positively to a good project.
- ricardobeat 3y agoWould have been nice to share your emscripten build with the original project.
