A developer ports the open-source 2D CAD application LibreCAD to run in the browser using WebAssembly and Qt's WebAssembly support, leveraging a large language model for assistance.
chDB is a complete ClickHouse OLAP engine compiled to WebAssembly, enabling SQL queries directly in the browser via a SQL shell at wasm.chdb.io.
Sam Rose from ngrok demonstrates how they ported Kubernetes to run entirely in the browser using WebAssembly, allowing developers to simulate a local cluster without needing a remote server or complex setup.
LangChain's Deep Agents allow untrusted agent-written code to run securely using WebAssembly-based code interpreters, providing execution and capability isolation without a traditional sandbox.
The article describes WATaBoy, a Game Boy emulator that uses just-in-time compilation to WebAssembly to achieve performance exceeding that of a native interpreter, serving as a proof-of-concept for JIT-to-Wasm in emulation.
AssppWeb is an open-source project that uses WebAssembly to simulate Apple ID authentication in a browser, allowing users to bypass the App Store and install genuine applications directly on iOS devices, employing a zero-trust architecture to protect credential security.
AssppWeb is an open-source web-based tool that allows installing iOS apps directly to devices without the App Store, using a zero-trust architecture where credentials are handled client-side via WebAssembly.
Half-Life 2 has been ported to run directly in a web browser via WebAssembly, allowing play without installation.
SwiftLaTeX enables LaTeX compilation directly in the browser using WebAssembly, allowing users to create and edit LaTeX documents without a server-side LaTeX installation.
A test harness for experimenting with the Origin Private File System (OPFS) in browsers using Pyodide, built to explore persistent SQLite storage for Datasette Lite.
peerd is an open-source browser extension that serves as an AI agent harness, enabling agents to run entirely within the browser without a backend, using WebAssembly for sandboxed compute and WebRTC for peer-to-peer agent communication.
This article benchmarks the performance of various WebAssembly runtimes (WAVM, WasmEdge, WAMR, wasm2c, Wasmer, Wasmtime, Wazero, Node, Bun) using the libsodium crypto library, comparing versions from 2024, 2025, and 2026. Results show that WAVM, WasmEdge (with AOT), WAMR (AOT), wasm2c, Wasmer, and Wasmtime achieve near-native performance for CPU-bound crypto, while wide_arithmetic instructions benefit crypto code.
A developer shares their weekend project of building a low-level infix language that compiles to WebAssembly, and offers a personal ranking of AI coding tools from contextual autocomplete to frontier models.
Modular demonstrates two approaches for computing game fields: using SIMD precomputation or compiling a Mojo kernel to WebAssembly for live browser rendering.
PyPI now supports publishing WebAssembly wheels for Pyodide, allowing package maintainers to distribute their own WASM packages directly. The article demonstrates this with the luau-wasm package.
luau-wasm 0.1a0, a WebAssembly build of the Luau scripting language, has been released.
The article announces the launch of WASI 0.3, which integrates async primitives natively into WebAssembly components via the Component Model, simplifying APIs and enabling better component composition.
WASI 0.3.0 (Preview 3) has been released, replacing earlier explicit streams and polling interfaces with native async functionality via the component model's future and stream types.
Pyodide 314.0 release marks a milestone with the acceptance of PEP 783, enabling Python packages to publish WebAssembly wheels directly to PyPI, reducing maintainer burden and simplifying distribution for the Python-in-the-browser ecosystem.
