What Hacker News says

Steve and a few others have done a little work recently on DotNetAnywhere (DNA) under this branch: https://github.com/ncave/DotNetAnywhere/commits/latest But aside from these recent tweaks, the code hadn't been touched for about 5 years. It's just a toy and POC for now, but interesting nonetheless. JavaScript won't be unseated as the go-to language for web development and web frameworks by WASM, C#, Java, Python, Go, or anything else... at least not in the next decade. But certainly high-performance pieces will be dropped-in via WASM to interop with JS for things like image manipulation, etc.

> Blazor runs .NET code in the browser via a small, portable .NET runtime called DotNetAnywhere (DNA) compiled to WebAssembly Very ambitious for a side project. DotNetAnywhere is a 5 y/o interpreter project which needed a lot of love to build to WebAssembly. On top of that add the multiple layers needed for a competitive UI framework..
