HTTP SXG and Web Bundles (and SRI) - components of W3C Web Packaging - may be useful for a signed WASM package format: https://github.com/WICG/webpackage#packaging-tools

How is WASM distinct from an unsigned binary blob?

Nothing other than trying to reboot the ecosystem for VCs.

When will emscripten output java byte code?

Just because something existed before something else doesn't mean a competitor can't spring up and have more momentum. It feels like the JVM is massively falling behind and it loses out massively on things like memory efficiency.

Even on that WASM is a follower,

"NestedVM provides binary translation for Java Bytecode. This is done by having GCC compile to a MIPS binary which is then translated to a Java class file. Hence any application written in C, C++, Fortran, or any other language supported by GCC can be run in 100% pure Java with no source changes."

How does the memory usage change? Does Java still require initial RAM reservation? /? Java specify how much RAM https://www.google.com/search?q=java+specify+how+much+ram

VOC transpiles Python to Java bytecode. Py2many transpiles Python to many languages but not yet Java.

Apache Arrow can do IPC to share memory references to structs with schema without modification between many languages now; including JS and WASM. https://arrow.apache.org/

FWIU Service Workers and Task Workers and Web Locks are the browser APIs available for concurrency in browsers and thus WASM. https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/1639#issueco...

Emscripten-compiled WASM can be packaged with ~conda packages and built and hosted by emscripten-forge ( which works like conda-forge, which has Python, R, Julia, Rust) to be imported from JS and WASM. Here's the picomamba recipe.yml on emscripten-forge: https://github.com/emscripten-forge/recipes/blob/main/recipe... and for CPython: https://github.com/emscripten-forge/recipes/blob/main/recipe...

Browsers could run WASM containers, too. How does the browser sandbox+ WASM runtime sandbox (that lacks WASI) compare to the security features of Linux containers?

How do the docstrings look after transpilation?
