Looks very interesting. Browsix works by implementing a limited set of POSIX calls (read/write/etc) and then compiles C/C++ projects using enscrriptem directly to run on top of this API. I expect Browsix will have better performance (because it does not emulate a CPU or virtual memory). I also expect it will be limited to running a single running process. It may / may not support threads (or pipes) at this time - so it may not be an complete learning platform for system programming
