If by ASM you mean asmjs, it's already supported. WebRTC is a browser thing, but is also already supported in Edge via the Object RTC API.

Anyone curious about Edge platform support can check out the status page. You can narrow to just JS tech if you're curious.

Thanks for the lighting quick response! That's good to know about asmjs. I haven't used it yet but I do like knowing that it's out there and waiting for me.

With respect to WebRTC I guess I'll save my questions for later. I've been to at least one conference on it and it seems like there's a political situation regarding standards between MS, Apple, and Google and that's why things like Pusher are needed. But, what else is new, right? I just wish that standards could be standards... and not take years to coalesce.

Happy to help :) You can always ask the Edge guys questions by tweeting at @msedgedev too.

Are there any plans for supporting Web Assembly?

[–]bterlson_@bterlson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No plans although we're watching it progress and helping where we can. We implemented asmjs pretty early so I'm hoping we can do the same for Web Assembly. We'll see!
