I would also say that IF blazor worked on a browser plugin like silverlight did, today that's not the case it is built on the webassembly standard which and it is being adopted in the browsers which means once it gets on the web, it is unlikely to ever go out again. Even if Microsoft themselves leave Blazor today, it can still work, the burden of creating a fork and keeping blazor alive will certainly be big but... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
Under the Hood: Technically, XR# integrates Three.js, A-Frame.js, and the Microsoft .NET to WASM compiler (like in Blazor). It’s built on our decade-long experience with OpenSilver, a contemporary Silverlight alternative. Source: 8 months ago
Nah, I appreciate the wonderfull work of those WebAssembly people that allowed me to have Java applets, Flash and Silverligh running again in the browser. https://leaningtech.com/cheerpj/ https://leaningtech.com/cheerpx-for-flash/ https://opensilver.net/ Thanks for making the revenge of plugins a reality. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
Now there is a company making Silverlight work on top of WebAssembly. https://opensilver.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
It will definitly be the new common, by killing Flash et all without comparable tooling, while at the same time offering WASM, it was only a matter of time until we had the revenge of plugins. Basically 10 years wasting time to come full circle. https://leaningtech.com/cheerpj https://leaningtech.com/cheerpx-for-flash/ https://opensilver.net/ All of the three major ones are now back, but it is ok, WASM is great! - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
Not the first attempted Flash reimplementation[1,2,3]. The GNU one didn’t work all that well back in the day as far as I remember, but then Flash was a moving target at the time.

A true emulator would be something like Ruffle or Lightspark. Ruffle I know doesn't work well with Walfas last time I checked. I don't know about Lightspark. Source: over 1 year ago
Lightspark, a browser plugin written in C++. It's a work in progress, not every flash content will work. Modern mainstream browsers don't support running it within a page, so flash content needs to be run in a standalone lightspark app, or in some lesser known browsers. Source: over 1 year ago
I'm trying to install lightspark on my computer, and it hinges on launching a shell script that mainly executes a CMake command. When I try ./build.sh (the name of the shell script), I get a bunch of lines of errors. The first one I think is major is CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.23/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:69 (message): The C compiler "/usr/bin/cc" is not able to compile a simple test...

I'm having alot of fun with this post actually. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some alternative or workaround for whatever you guys need to run. For example, instead of the clunky Java, we have this. Instead of Flash, try this. Source: over 2 years ago
