WebAssembly really is the future of cross-platform apps. With so many existing C++ projects and optimized code, being able to convert them is highly useful.

Just curious, have you tried to open a cpp project and use a tool like Claude to just convert it to WebAssembly and compare? That would make a great data point if you can show that cppbolt can do it much better/faster.

Not yet, I think it will be worth testing if claude or other AI can convert to web assembly, I will try with some non-Gui Open-source C++ projects.(GUI applications will be harder since they require platform-dependent API layers)
A C++ compiler in three weeks? Is it vibe-coded?
In my Linkedin post https://lnkd.in/p/dSuXMv2h, I have mentioned that AI assisted me during development of this project, but it's not like a blind vibe coding, I always review the end code before committing them. Also it's a subset of C++ 17, so it still misses a lots of thing(But I will cover them as well).
