Emulating a 6502 with cycle-perfect timing

Cycle accurate models have been a product for a long time - I was writing them for a job over a decade ago.

Don't confuse them with timing accurate models, which also stimulate where in the clock cycle levels change. That's the class of model you would be interested in place and route data for.

I agree, I've got a copy of ModelSim which I use for that, I was wondering if someone could create a 'simulator as a service' using JS code in a browser. If you can take the RTL description of the synthesized hardware and create a model that runs in a browser, then you can have your browser do a quick check of your HDL while you are working. People compile so many things into JS these days, why not hardware?
