The fact that a decade-old, resource-intensive C++ program can be ported successfully speaks well to WebAssembly living up to its potential. Knowing what went well, what went pear-shaped, caveats, gotcha&amp;#x27;s, etc with this project would start building up the &amp;quot;community knowledge&amp;quot; about whether, when, and how other code bases could be ported.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Google Earth Ported to Browsers with WebAssembly</title><url>https://www.infoq.com/news/2019/06/google-earth-web-assembly-port/</url></story>
