popcorn

Is this about https://github.com/software-mansion/popcorn ? I love their webassembly live demo https://popcorn.swmansion.com/#live-demo Edited: Oh this is using llm to write webassembly as an ISA ir (like byte code)? See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47118778

This is the VM behind Popcorn https://github.com/software-mansion/popcorn, a project aiming to run OTP and Elixir in WASM: > Popcorn is a library that allows you to run client-side Elixir in browsers, with Javascript interoperability Recent ElixirConf keynote introducing it: https://youtu.be/ep--rQO1FRI

Tasks seem not to work indeed, but spawning processes works. Try Enum.map(1..10, fn _i -> spawn(fn -> IO.puts("new process") end) end) Also, there are two scenarios: compiling code in the browser and running it, and running precompiled code in the browser. In the latter case more things work, for example the 'game of life' example uses GenServers, Supervisors and Registry: https://popcorn.swmansion.com/game_of_life/ https://github.com/software-mansion/popcorn/tree/main/exampl... But yes, it's still unstable. Improving the stability is our main focus right now.

For anyone else wondering the GitHub repo is here: https://github.com/software-mansion/popcorn Couldn’t find any link to it on the article
