WrenJS+

[Ketchetwahmeegwun Southall]

Hello all!

A little over a couple weeks ago I started on a JavaScript emscripten "port" of Wren so that I could more easily teach a couple developers on my team by having an interactive web interface where they could be introduced to Wren concepts and easily experiment as they went along. While I have not yet finished that part of the project yet, I have released version 1.0.0 of the Wren JavaScript port, known as WrenJS+, and it is available at https://github.com/kettek/wrenjs-plus. Although there is more I'd like to do on documentation, the README, API document, and handful of examples provide enough information to use, build, and extend WrenJS+. I may also switch it over to use the MIT license, as I am uncertain about using the LGPL3 when the primary bulk of the output library uses the MIT-licensed Wren and Emscripten projects.

To note, I do realize that there is already a JavaScript Wren emscripten port, which does have a lovely Wren experimentation website, however my attempts at both using the very limited releases and building it did not end in any degree of success.

Most importantly, I look forward to sharing the web-based interactive learning suite once it is complete.

Interesting! I'm not familiar with emscripten, but I'm curious: is this asm.js or WebAssembly? How do you like the performance?

Wow! After a quick look I think I like your wrapper code better than what I wrote for wrenjs. I'm excited to dig in further.

I'm in no position to keep my project maintained at the moment, and it's good so see someone else filling the void.
