Hi all,

Very cool demo - thanks for sharing!

Would any part of the current QGIS Desktop part be re-usable in a "web assembly" QGIS? Or would the GUI part have to be re-developed?

I would also assume that access to local files would be very restricted - right? Network based resources (DB access and web services) would probably work fine?

Thanks and greetings,

Andreas

I am very keen to hear what you think about QGIS and WebAssembly. In
the coming days I would like to also get the build system and my hacks
available in a git repo, so that others can start to play with it...

Hi Martin,

Supercool demo!!!! :-)

But (I always but...), some questions for the project:

I think this pushes us to the technical limits of browsers. with that also performance wise to the limits of QGIS? Like people are now asking for/using QGIS on chromebooks and (smaller) ARM devices: is that still really workable?

As a technical pet project, it is cool, but can we keep the promise of a GIS in a browser? Or do we end up with a poor performing (or only working for small sets) of QGIS?

Or should we put more money/energy in makin QGIS more modular so you can use certain modules for a small viewer and the full Monty for a true GIS?

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde
