Awesome project! Dumb question: could you run this in frontend js using the browser's js engine and wasm environment similar to WebContainers? Maybe `fs` is ju

  It’s not a dumb question at all. And yes, it will allow running Node.js apps fully on the browser, in a way that’s more compatible than any other alternative! Stay tuned!

    >in a way that’s more compatible than any other alternative I can see where that's going. Awesome. I want to msg. you on LinkedIn but can't.

    Do you have any specific test case that you would consider "very challenging" on the compatibility side? I'd be curious to check if BrowserPod can support that already.

  I work on a project that does exactly that (and more): https://browserpod.io/ https://browserpod.io/. Currently it supports Node, but we plan to add Python, Ruby, git, and more. You can see it in action in this demo: https://vitedemo.browserpod.io https://vitedemo.browserpod.io More info here: https://labs.leaningtech.com/blog/browserpod-10 https://labs.leaningtech.com/blog/browserpod-10 Ah and kudos to Syrus and his team for this release. Edge.js's architecture seems to have many similarities with BrowserPod. I see it as proof that we are both going in the right direction!
