"Cheerp compiles to native binary code backend, JavaScript frontend, and automatically generates RPC communication code"

The RPC feature sounds like it could be immensely useful for day-to-day web development. But the C/C++ is a deal-breaker for most web developers. Are there any projects that only do the RPC autogeneration stuff?

Also can frontend/backend code be shared (if there are no dependencies to the browser/unix system)?

Yes, code without client- or server-specific dependencies can be shared.
