CppCon 2016: Dan Gohman “C++ on the Web: Let's have some serious fun.'

Want to get started compiling C++ code for the Web? Come to this session to learn how. We'll look at the tools, C++ libraries, and C++ OpenGL and SDL APIs, available to C++ programmers today, and walk through building and running a C++ application in Web browsers using WebAssembly, the new cross-browser standard for compiled code on the Web.

We'll also do an deep-dive tour through the entire system, starting from C++ code, through the compilation process to the WebAssembly binary format, and then to native code. We'll look at how to make C++ code interface with Web APIs and JavaScript, how both standalone C++ and hybrid applications are built, how WebAssembly delivers the kinds of performance characteristics C++ code expects while keeping users safe, and how C++ developers can make the most of WebAssembly's optimizations for fast download and startup times to deliver great experiences on the Web.

Let's play some games, have some fun, and do some serious C++ on the Web!

[darkpearl]

it's actually kinda admirable how someone can talk that fast without really trying

[virdvird]

This is rare video, that doesn't need x2.

[wilfransprecisionmillan]

it's looks interesting, a reason to learn and get involved with c++, i hope all this technology gets spread to the entire planet, very soon.

[igorgiuseppe]

stupid question, its possible to make an browser in web assembly?

[DreamingConcepts]

Just so you know, this video doesn't need x2.
watching at x1.5 seems just fine.

[igorgiuseppe]

"spliting an aplication memory is another way to make the aplication protect it self from it self"
it took me a while to figure out what it means...

[devmrin]

To all the MVPs who read the comment section before watching the video!
Set the speed to 0.75 -> You'll thank me soon.

[bralis]

Will Webassembly make C/C++ more important than Java in the near future? Because now it seems that Java vs C/C++ wins in terms of popularity ...

[DanielMonteiroNit]

See now, kids, why you shouldn't drink too much coffee? Not even slowing down the video I'm able to understand him.

[williamheckman]

This guy talks so fast its hard to understand him.

[MrAbrazildo]

Thumbs down. Serious fun?! Where's SDL2 on the web, easy, safe and fast? That would be serious fun. This whole presentation seems like an add to sell a compiler. And those quotes... idiotic!

[sanjuuyonsai]

Sorry, had to stop watching this after 10 minutes. It was just too tiring to listen. Maybe content wise this is a good talk. who knows.

[Dziaji]

For some reason i can't distinguish any of his words. He sounds like a babbling toddler.
