How best to deploy a WebAssembly app

idlefrog

Let's say I can't host a server on my own machine that people can connect to.

Could I instead deploy a WebAssembly app to another machine by sharing files?
That is you copy the files to machine M:

app.html	HTML container
qtloader.js	JS API for loading Qt apps
app.js	        JS API for loading Qt apps
app.wasm    	emscripten app binary

Then start up a local server on machine M with:

python3 -m http.server

But why does that not work? Does the server need emrun installed?
With a simple Qt helloworld, I get the error message:

TypeError: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource.

Hi,

You need a server that is configured to serve these 4 files. A small nginx should be enough.

Thank you!...Am a complete beginner. Just the help I needed! I'll try out nginx or something akin. :)
