Is playcanvas using emscriptem or is it written directly in js? nice project by the way. Also what does the worker do? does it have access to the canvas context or it just does some calculations and communicate with the main thread via serialized data.

Playcanvas is written directly in JS, but does use an emscripten-compiled physics engine (bullet/ammo).

Serialized data. Workers currently can't have access to canvas contexts.
