   I want a JavaScript interpreter written in wasm but I don't know how to convince anyone reading this that this isn't a joke

     @mcc I wonder if something like this will run on .NET WASM https://github.com/sebastienros/jint

     @mcc great news! to my astonishment, there are multiple javascript interpreters written in javascript, and also apparently many more written in other languages! maybe one will fit your niche? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ECMAScript_engines

     @mcc also this very real book might just say how to write one yourself

     @mcc I think there's a reference implementation for javascript written in javascript, so that's like half the way there right

     @mcc I'd compile QuickJS to WASM & use that!

     That's got a reasonable codesize...
