    Very slick and opens up so many possibilities.

    WebAssembly, WASI, like WebRTC/WebGPU/WebXR/WebAudio, just makes webdev, gamedev + native/networking very very interesting in this phase of technology where js frameworks are culty bloated/verbose and apps are the main thing for marketing/tools. Web apps + tools are opening up with wasm/wasi.

    Runno (https://runno.dev/ + https://runno.dev/wasi) is a great idea and helps make interesting native stuff in a sandbox locally. Running all this directly without having to mash into assembly is a great idea. Awesome job on this!

    > Runno helps you make runnable code examples that can be embedded in web pages. This is very handy for educational tools, it means:

    > - You can make code examples that don't need users to install scary tools.

    > - No need to run a server, it all runs client-side in the browser.

    > - Your users can edit and re-run any code examples you make.

    > - The examples are extremely customisable with HTML, CSS and JavaScript!

    G’day, if anyone has any questions about this I’m happy to answer them here.

    Hello, thank you for this work as it shows great creative potential.

    A suggestion for runno's website, though : when I clicked on the link posted on HN, I did not expect to download that much data. Maybe you could find a way to offer pre-rendered examples and give the user who visits your site a (very visible) option to really download and run things ?

    This is seriously awesome. I'm gonna use it in my blog. Stay tuned!

    Great stuff.

    Is it possible to output to markup from these programs ?

    It would be cool if python wsgi programs in this could work somehow.

    I get "Runno crashed: ReferenceError: SharedArrayBuffer is not defined" in every component.

    It is a nice proof-of-concept, but a pity that runno uses firebase. Any software with built-in SaaS services from advertisement agencies are a no-go area for me.
