wasm / webR compilation planned?

[eingemaischt]

Hi,

we are currently investigating possibilities to offer some of our shiny apps with shinylive as wasm / browser side web applications.

For this all used libraries have to have a wasm32 emscripten port in their repository.

Did you already try to compile your library to wasm32 or is this due to some limitations (e.g. file access) not possible in this stage?

It's certainly possible to compile HDF5 to Wasm (see https://github.com/usnistgov/libhdf5-wasm/) though I'm not familiar with getting it to work inside an R package.
