About BrowserPod
BrowserPod is built by Leaning Technologies. We are an engineering company that works on WebAssembly and on native real software inside the browser. BrowserPod is the product that lets you boot full environments, such as Node.js, Python and Rails, in a browser tab, with no server doing the work behind it.
The same engine also runs compiled languages such as C++, Java and Go. Code runs close to the user, isolated from the host machine, and at a speed that is close to native. That is the part of the problem we have spent years on, and BrowserPod is where most of it comes together.
