About this tag
Emscripten is a tool that compiles C and C++ code into asm.js, a highly optimizable subset of JavaScript. The tagged content discusses how Microsoft Edge and its Chakra JavaScript engine added support for asm.js, enabling faster execution of code compiled with Emscripten. This allows developers to bring high-performance applications, such as games and computational tools, to the web while maintaining near-native speeds. The threads highlight the collaboration between Microsoft and the asm.js community to improve web performance, particularly in Windows 10 and Universal Windows Apps. Emscripten plays a key role in this ecosystem by bridging native code and web standards.
