WebAssembly is a new web technology that promises to revolutionize the web ecosystem. In this talk, I will explore the very limits of what is possible to do with it, by describing CheerpX: A WebAssembly-based x86 virtual machine in the browser.

Similarly to modern native virtual machines, CheerpX features a Just-In-Time compiler capable of producing optimized WebAssembly code at runtime. This has the potential of speeding up the execution considerably and unlocking the possibility of running real-world native applications in the browser.

One such application that we are currently working on at Leaning Technologies to showcase the CheerpX potential is the Adobe Flash Player for Linux: This allows running unmodified Flash content on modern browsers without plugins.

This is a complete emulator of the Oberon instruction set in 300 lines of AssemblyScript https://t.co/txFnmblUwb that runs Oberon at acceptable speed https://t.co/LVMp01Yand

@pepyakin Do you know someone who knows if this is supposed to work or if this is a bug? If so, where do I even properly report this, never reported a bug to Chrome.
