Cheerp: A C++ Compiler for the Web

Is WebAssembly the new Java? I wouldn't be surprised to see standalone containers for running WebAssembly without needing all the trappings of a web browser.

Here is a tutorial to make a small HTML5 game with Cheerp using mixed mode WebAssembly&#x2F;JavaScript output. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;leaningtech&#x2F;cheerp-meta&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Cheerp-Tutorial:-Mixed-mode-C---to-WebAssembly-and-JavaScript" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;leaningtech&#x2F;cheerp-meta&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Cheerp-Tutor...</a>

Would anyone be able to provide an example of where this compiler would be useful? Is the goal to run the resulting JS in a server side environment?

Help me understand; why would I use it for JS (not WebAssembly)? Haven&#x27;t we seen ScriptSharp already trying to do it and fail miserably?

The pricing is great.
