running spin application directly in the broswer? about spin

[itowlson]

I imagine this would take significant design effort, but my predictive powers would also have ruled out "containers in the browser" and "compile containers to Wasm", both of which have already happened. grin There are certainly design challenges though, and I will chance my arm and say it's unlikely to happen anytime soon.

(Now watch Radu do it in a weekend.)

I am curious about your use case though - what sort of Spin application are you thinking of where you'd like to have the server (or other event handler) running in the browser, rather than at the command line?

FWIW I have had success with simple experiments running spin components in the browser using JCO and writing shim for the spin host functions.
