"How to run Python in the browser" - Katie Bell (LCA 2022 Online)

(Katie Bell) Turns out the browser can run more than just JavaScript! Using WebAssembly we can compile and run other languages too. It gets even more fun when you're trying to mix the asynchronous world of a JavaScript UI with synchronous blocking operations like reading from stdin in Python. Join me to learn what WebAssembly can do and how to use browser features like postMessage, Web Workers, and SharedArrayBuffer to smoothly interact with Python in a terminal in the browser.
