As well as "I already have code in lang X"

I'm hitting that at the moment with a moderately complex c# codebase that would be really useful to run natively in the browser.

Yeah - I could rewrite it but I'd much rather not.



Maybe Blazor[0] could be a good fit for you.

Yeah. I keep meaning to dig into Blazor but it seems overwhelming at first (especially because I'm mainly a C# dev due to Unity and a lot of the .NET jargon is foreign to me).

There seems to be more lightweight "c# to web-assembly" routes than might be worth investigating.


I think the complexity in Blazor might be a documentation issue. Every tutorial and quick start I can find assume you're knee deep in the ecosystem.


Just out of curiosity, what kind of a moderately-complex codebase can be migrated to a browser setting from one that C# is currently running on without considerable refactoring or adaptations ?


It generates and manipulates 3d geometries. I currently render it in Unity but it would be nice to have a lightweight WebGL native library that could be used by three.js, A-Frame etc.
