General question. Has anyone attempted compiling rustc to be embedded in a web browser?
The current Rust playground implementations require a server-based Docker setup. I wonder if the work of compiling code could be pushed client-side for increased security and ease of deployment. Naturally the size of the web page would be very large, but it strikes me as an interesting experiment.
Compiling applications/libraries written in Rust to JavaScript/asm.js/WebAssembly is one thing, compiling the full compiler suite is a whole different thing.
