Remove Emscripten from the docs

[brettcannon]

Since Emscripten is no longer a tier 3 platform we should probably remove mentions of it from the docs.

how we can help this issue? I need to know more to solve it.

Basically the docs say things like "Emscripten" or "not Emscripten" about platform support. Pretty much all mentions of "Emscripten" in the documentation should probably be removed.

Thansk, I will remove all of them, if there is any docs or related information about removing Emscripten like "why Emscripten is no longer a tier 3 platform "can mention in my PR please help me to find them.

You don't need an official link; the core team knows the "why".

It looks like there are still some Emscripten references in the docs beyond the ones removed by #117057.

@ned-deily Which references in particular are you referring to?

As noted in this comment, some of the Emscripten references were left in deliberately, reflecting the fact that the functionality exists, even if the platform isn't tier 3. This is analogous to the state of Android in previous releases - there are a handful of references to Android in the docs, even though Android isn't Tier 3 in those releases.

I'm happy to do the cleanup on this if needed; I just need to be clear about what I'm cleaning up :-)

"Emscripten" is found in library/intro.rst, library/sys.rst & the release notes like mentioned in your comment. But also in using/configure.rst. If that's deliberate, then this issue should be closed, otherwise they should be removed from the latter.

[freakboy3742]

My read is that the mentions in using/configure.rst is in the same category as the ones in library - it's describing how to configure a build for Emscripten. That is still a valid configuration, just not a Tier 3 supported configuration.

[nineteendo]

OK, then I think you can close this.

[freakboy3742]

@ned-deily Did you have any specific concerns, or are you OK with closing this?

[ned-deily]

Sounds good, I think we can close this again.
