Ondrej Kelle 56 Posted January 14, 2019 https://tondrej.blogspot.com/2019/01/webassembly-with-delphi-and-chakracore.html chakracore-delphi now contains WasmSample, a new sample project using ChakraCore to load and run a WebAssembly module (in this case, an implementation of Conway's Game of Life). It's based on Colin Eberhardt's blog post Writing WebAssembly By Hand (you can run the code in your browser here). Share this post Link to post
Rollo62 483 Posted January 15, 2019 Thanks for the nice project. Sorry, I don't want to be negative, but do you know more about the future of ChakraCore ? Since Edge browser has moved to Chromium, this is probably a not too bright future. I would not try to launch big projects based on ChakraCore any longer. 1 Share this post Link to post
Jacek Laskowski 57 Posted January 15, 2019 Chakra is open source, under the liberal MIT license, it doesn't have to die with Edge. Share this post Link to post

Since Edge browser has moved to Chromium, this is probably a not too bright future. I would not try to launch big projects based on ChakraCore any longer. Thanks, I'm glad you like it. Of course, what the move to Chromium really means in practice remains to be seen. For now, ChakraCore still seems to be active, with bug fixes and new features, too. Quoting from their statement: Quote ChakraCore is currently being used in various projects outside the browser. So, despite the change of direction for Microsoft Edge, our team will continue supporting ChakraCore. We will ensure that any security vulnerability is patched in a timely manner, apart from bringing other enhancements to the engine. The project will also continue taking public contributions. As far as I know, ChakraCore is used in: Node-ChakraCore (e.g. also on Windows 10 IoT Core) Azure DocumentDb (not sure about CosmosDb) Outlook.com Cortana Minecraft scripting API Sphere game engine Reference FHIR server Share this post Link to post
Rollo62 483 Posted January 15, 2019 (edited) Ok thanks for the info, seems to have some support left at least. Would be good to have another strong option left beside Chromium, as this seems to take over everything at the moment. Edited January 15, 2019 by Rollo62 1 Share this post Link to post
