Imagine the same app running anywhere: In Apple Safari on the Mac, Google Chrome on a Chromebook , Mozilla Firefox on a PC, in Microsoft Edge on a Windows 10 PC, in Safari on an iPhone, in Chrome on Android. Basically one binary to be truly multi-platform, written in C++ or other programming languages and even using OpenGL and the webcam. This is possible with web assembly. An easy way to experience this is https://www.funkykarts.rocks Just click the link and try the game yourself.
In this video you can see this game running
- in Safari on an iPhone (Screen sharing via QuickTime Player)
- in Chrome on an Android Phone (Screen sharing via www.1001TVs.com)
- in Chrome on an Apple M1
- in Edge on an Apple M1
- in Safari on an Apple M1
- in Firefox on an Apple M1
Same binaries, same experience everywhere. Just amazing.
