Comment on Ray Tracing with POV-Ray: 25 scenes in 25 days (2013)

Comments

This is pretty off-topic but I've been trying, very unsuccessfully, to port POV-Ray to WASM as a very low-priority side project for a while now. Of course there are better, more web-native tools to build ray tracers with but I really like the POV-Ray SDL and would love to play around with it in the browser.

It might be misguided but the ffmpeg builds in WASM made me think it might be possible but I reached the end of Google/SO trying to get the Boost libs to link while running emconfigure with the existing codebase.

I'm totally winging it so if someone has any ideas that could set me on the right path it would be greatly appreciated.
