Hello Qian. > 1. the download seems rather big. Does the cheerpx approach include an entire OS?
Almost. It downloads the container built using dockerfile https://github.com/wangyenshu/FriCAS-in-Browser/blob/main/Dockerfile. Cheerpx can load ext2 images. Also I have to split that image into pieces so that it can be hosted on github pages. (the split script is in https://github.com/wangyenshu/FriCAS-in-Browser/blob/main/build.sh.) There file index.html <https://github.com/wangyenshu/FriCAS-in-Browser/blob/main/index.html> has the script to glue them. > 2. have you tried other lisps? Like SBCL?

Currently, cheerpx only support x86 binaries. And I heard that most browser has 2GB memory limit for WebAssembly. These are two difficulties for this method. I initially try to port sagemath to WebAssembly using the same manner. But I failed due to the 2GB limit. Maybe there are methods to bypass that, like storing disks in Indexdb rather than in memory. I haven't tried that. Another thing to mention is that several sagemath components are successfully ported to WebAssembly in this manner, like Singular CAS <https://wangyenshu.github.io/Singular-in-Browser/>.
