Keno/julia-wasm: Running julia on wasm

There's three ways to try out the current state of the wasm port without building anything yourself.

An instance of the Web REPL hosted at https://keno.github.io/julia-wasm/website/repl.htm
Using a modified version of the Pluto IDE, available at https://pluto-wasm-backend.netlify.app/editor.html
Using the iodide IDE plugin (see https://alpha.iodide.io/notebooks/225/ to get started).

Both use a pre-built version. Please note that this is an extremely early alpha and many things are likely (and known) to be broken.

Julia on WASM - Setup instructions

This repo contains various experiments for setting up julia on wasm. It's intended for collaboration and issue tracking before things are working sufficiently to switch to the appropriate upstream repo: There's three scripts in this repo:

configure_julia_wasm.sh which will setup all the directories
build_julia_wasm.sh which will build two copies of julia (one natively for cross compiling the system image, one for wasm)
rebuild_js.sh which will rebuild just the wasm parts and dump it into the website/ directory which is a hacked up copy of https://github.com/vtjnash/JuliaWebRepl.jl

nodejs
gcc-multilib and g++-multilib

First install the emscripten SDK

# Install emsdk
git clone https://github.com/emscripten-core/emsdk.git
cd emsdk
./emsdk install emscripten-main-64bit binaryen-main-64bit
./emsdk activate emscripten-main-64bit binaryen-main-64bit

Then build and install upstream LLVM

# Install upstream LLVM
git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project
mkdir llvm-build
cd llvm-build
cmake -G Ninja -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;lld" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../llvm-project/llvm
ninja

Add LLVM_ROOT = '<PATH_TO_LLVM_HERE>/llvm-build/bin' to $HOME/.emscripten
Add llvm-build/bin to $PATH

Finally, you're ready to build julia for wasm

# Do this once
./configure-julia-wasm.sh
# this command may fail at the very end of the build process, that's normal
./build-julia-wasm.sh

This command may fail at the very end with an error like the following:

    JULIA build-native/usr/lib/julia/sys-o.a
syntax: incomplete: premature end of inputErrorException("")
ERROR: LoadError: syntax: incomplete: premature end of input
Stacktrace:
 [1] top-level scope at /root/julia-wasm/julia/contrib/generate_precompile.jl:7

This is expected (we're using a 32bit linux build, but telling it it's wasm to generate a compatible system image, so things are a bit confused). Afterwards, build the wasm build using:

 # Do this after you change something on the wasm side
 ./rebuild_js.sh

Afterwards you may set up a webserver using:

emrun --no_browser --port 8888 website/repl.htm &

At the moment Firefox Nightly seems to have the most complete wasm support and seems to be the fastest, so I'd recommend trying that. After starting the server above, just navigate to localhost:8888/repl.htm

Enable WASM GC support integration (Firefox Nightly)

In about:config enable javascript.options.wasm_gc

Enable WASM Reference Types (Chrome Canary)

google-chrome-unstable  --jsflags="--experimental-wasm-anyref"
