    Nice. It might be worth copying some of the introductory text from the Tauri package explaining what this does. Otherwise a person to lands on the readme gets a lot of technical de…

    Interesting problem, not sure it’s worth solving. A larger diameter and slower rotating fan would likely produce less noise for a comparable air flow.

    On iOS you can use the plappa client. It’s open source and works well in my experience.

    Pyodide maintainer here, we would have certainly seen more reports if JsDelivr was blocked in UK. That URL works fine for me from France, and when using a UK VPN end point. Maybe s…

    It's done currently in Pyodide: Python with DOM integration running with WASM. Minimal application with stdlib is around 5.5MB after compression now. Not small but still manageable…

    Concrete Python applications wouldn't be 100x faster if re-coded in some low level language. In most places where performance matter Python packages would be using either C extensi…

    Work on Node.js support is in progress in Pyodide. And as you mentioned there is also the Wasmer build that could be updated.

    Yes, installing pure Python packages that have wheels from PyPi works. Assuming they don't use functionality that's not supported by the WebAssembly VM such as multiprocessing, thr…

    Because a large part the Python ecosystem uses packages (and stdlib modules) with C extensions and you can't easily transpile those. The end goal of Pyodide is to be able run exist…
