You cant port the entire applet infrastructure since WASM is limited to the same API as Javascript. If WASM doesn't support multithreading, languages targetting WASM wont.

[daurnimator → spriggan3]

But it does support multithreading.

Things missing are usually specific external protocols. e.g. being able to make a TCP socket; (or higher level things like ignoring CORS).

[ant6n → spriggan3]

You can always support multi-threading by not doing multi-threading.
