Terminal support and going beyond simple testing. #50
Comments
Can you create a more detailed repro of what is exactly not working and which bugs you actually encounter? Our goal with nodebox is to stick with prototyping, in the end full development isn't even possible in the browser without something like microvm's (larger projects usually have complex monorepo setups, databases, ... which a browser cannot run, even if browsers add good FS support which would alleviate some of the current memory issues with in-browser node it would still struggle to support this.) At Codesandbox we're also investing more in microvm's so our "complete development" will be ran by microvm's, we're aware of the performance issues and working on improving that. |
I don't really have a error report to give. This is more of a feature request and gladly give more detail. I want to be able to use the wasm-webterm package in a web browser (it is in the node package registry) but it could not be found in the codesandbox ide. I want a way to install it with nodebox. It uses a lot of wasm. If you look at wasm-webterm it talks about to very popular frame work ( Emscripten and WASI) to run apps in the browser.
If I not mistaken This is only partially true ; wasm I believe is changing what the limit of a web browser is allowing for more compiled code in the browser. There are a lot you can do with modern html for example;indexDB and wasm. They even ported the SQL that indexDB uses to wasm to increase proformance. I looking forward to see what Emscripten and WASI I wanted to look into the code and try to implement something like wasm-webterm (not likely because I bad at programming and you say you aren't opensource) but there's no sense even looking if you are not considering going beyond JavaScript and using some new features of newer browser. I like the fact you trying to support older browser but IMHO it be a shame not to have some features because of it. |
I been doing a lot of research and I found wasm-webterm very interesting. There are also other wasm terminal but I don't know if they support custom commands. Sadly codesandbox doesn't support this package.
What I wanted to know is will nodebox ever support this terminal or are you just going to keep stuck with basic proto typing?
I tried stackblitz but it is very buggy and doesn't work well in the mobile browser and is not opensource but according to @this post(look at the end of the article)
Nodebox is not also.
Is there anyway of running this package in codesandbox (or nodeonbox) without relying on microvm( Wich is unbearably slow with an extremely bad interface on mobile)?
