I thought this was going to be an emscripten port of Wine running Winamp :(
- mateuszf 12y agoIs the code open source? I don't think so.
- pikachu_is_cool 12y agoWine and X are open source; that's all you need.
- icebraining 12y agoWine Is Not an Emulator, though - you'd still need some kind of layer translating the x86 binary to JS.
- ccozan 12y agowouldn't that be the role of asm.js?
- icebraining 12y agoNo, asm.js is just "an extraordinarily optimizable, low-level subset of JavaScript". It doesn't run x86 machine code, you'd need to convert it (or interpret it). According to the webs, there are some x86 → LLVM converters, and then Emscripten can convert LLVM → asm.js, but getting that to work would probably take many months.
- pikachu_is_cool 12y agoOh yeah true.
