I thought the idea of web assembly was not to compile to javascript, but to compile to byte code.. We already have tons of tools that compile to javascript, so what would be the difference between those tools and web assembly.. i.e. I thought ( could be mistaken ) that web assembly put little chunks of assembly like code in your HTML. Almost like assembly language but higher level. Does it really compile just to plain javascript? I thought the idea was to actually create a new assembly like instruction language and not use javascript language -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org http://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
