Emscripten is an LLVM-to-JavaScript compiler. It takes LLVM bitcode - which can be generated
from C/C++, using llvm-gcc
(DragonEgg) or clang
, or any other language that can be
converted into LLVM - and compiles that into JavaScript, which can be run on the web (or
anywhere else JavaScript can run).

Emscripten is available under 2 licenses, the MIT license and the University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License.
Both are permissive open source licenses, with little if any practical difference between them.
The reason for offering both is that (1) the MIT license is well-known, while (2) the University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License allows Emscripten's code to be integrated upstream into LLVM, which uses that license, should the opportunity arise.
See LICENSE
for the full content of the licenses.
This fork will keep up to date with original emscripten incoming branch. The purposes of this fork are:
- Contributing and Maintaining to Embind.
- Adding new programming languages supported for wasm based on extended binaryen compiler.(this is considering)
