Hi everyone,  
I wrote an article about the different ways julia can run in the browser, together with a reproducible tutorial about how to compile Julia to Wasm:

> **[Julia in the Browser](https://nextjournal.com/sdanisch/wasm-julia)**

Most of the work has been done by @Keno. Hopefully this will help to set up some more people to get this project going, while taking away the work from @Keno!  
You can remix the article and edit it to actually compile julia to wasm: sign up code: `julia1.0`.  
Not sure if we can reach a wider audience with this, but I posted it to HN in any case 😉

Best,  
Simon

Neat.  
Just a note, the link to the docker container gives a 404.

Sorry, I couldn’t find it to upvote.

There’s a search field at the bottom of HN.

Neither “julia” nor “wasm” as a search term work.

I tried “julia wasm” and got it as the first result. The title is actually “How to run Julia in the Browser”. [Comments](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18726050)
