what kind of platform was used to develop this? Cool to see it running in the browser and on mobile.

Wasn't cool to see that it requires Google Chrome.

EveryCircuit runs C++ on across all platforms, at full speed. And Chrome is the only browser that supports C++ without requiring a plugin.

I don't know much about this but couldn't you use Emscripten and still get good performance?

Emscripten also has a wasm backend in progress it seems so if you begin using Emscripten today you might gain from that in the future?

Why not release a binary for Linux, Windows, etc.?

That seems to be a common sentiment. Not knowing anything about Chrome, what are the relative advantages and drawbacks of it for this type of application?
