Why not Web Audio and Web MIDI? Do you really need an Emscripten SDL2??
SDL is not for audio and MIDI (we will use native Web Audio (Worklets) and MIDI) but for the framebuffer, keyboard and touchscreen/"mouse".
Ah ... I don't know much about the video stuff.
We want to simplify development and ease of use for Tulip Desktop, our Tulip simulator.
Tulip Desktop is crucial for Tulip - it helps people learn about Tulip and also helps them write programs for Tulip.
It is currently based on the
unix
port of Micropython and SDL, to simulate the screen. AMY works as is. We (Brian and Dan) do most of our work on macOS, and the linux/WSL ports have various problems that we can't fix. The linux/WSL ports also have to compiled from source.We want to build Tulip Desktop for the web, using Micropython's
webassembly
port, AMY's web port, andemscripten
's SDL support (or find another frame buffer-like canvas object.) This will let anyone just go to (e.g.) https://tulip.computer/desktop and have their own file system and be able to interact with Tulip on the web with no software install.
