Thanks for sharing.

I wonder if you know about that ECL can be cross compiled to WebAssembly directly, and someone on the Maxima maillist did it that way. I believe that similar thing can be done to FriCAS, although I haven’t tried yet. Maybe you are interested in that information.

Yes, e.g. Maxima runs in the browser this way (ECL).
https://maxima-on-wasm.pages.dev/

However, the Maxima pure Lisp build is "smoother" (IMO), in the sense that it has less external dependencies. But of course, it should also be possible for Fricas when we improved the lisp build ...

BTW, I get errors when doing integration, fails at loading files:
   pthread_kill failed at suspend: errcode= 38

I got this to (bit less when using "brave" instead of "firefox". The current fricas lisp build loads on demand. Preloading might be safer?

Hello.

I succeeded in porting FriCAS to WebAssembly so that it can run in browser in client side.

Try it here: https://wangyenshu.github.io/FriCAS-in-Browser/ <https:// wangyenshu.github.io/FriCAS-in-Browser/> See more details in the github repo: https://github.com/wangyenshu/ FriCAS-in-Browser <https://github.com/wangyenshu/FriCAS-in-Browser>

It takes about one minute to load FriCAS in my Browser.

This port use cheerpx, which is a WebAssembly based runtime to execute x86 binaries on browser. Briefing speaking, it runs a container with ecl installed and load Qian Yun's pure common-lisp build of FriCAS by in browser.
