Hey HN! This is an article on how WebAssembly can enable us to port command-line tools to the web, which enables fast and interactive playgrounds!

You can find a demo at http://jqkungfu.com and the code at http://github.com/robertaboukhalil/jqkungfu

Hey, thanks for taking the time - I have long been curious how to use Emscripten to do something like this, and your explanation of why its better than building limited sandboxes for playing with CLI apps makes perfect sense :)
