Hi everyone.

I want to ask if there're any plans for and/or ETA for ASIO supporting WebAssembly. I have a web server application I wrote using sync server and client examples from the Beast library that I wanted to try porting to WebAssembly, but I was told at the Beast GitHub that ASIO doesn't WebAssembly.

I'll show my source code here for reference, in case someone wants to see it (I have it all on Gist):
C++: https://gist.github.com/DragonOsman/d00ea7ec3d49c128ad7789293f156a09

HTML: https://gist.github.com/DragonOsman/506bd2bae1dfe4c03a4bbe2a6d830324
JavaScript: https://gist.github.com/DragonOsman/c6e8fb15343544e662f474c5a526d1c2

The C++ code also declares two environment variables that are needed on the front-end side. It sends them over as needed.

This issue was moved by chriskohlhoff from boostorg/asio#151.

Update: there's an official Emscripten port of ASIO. May need to verify version and see if it's the latest version. If it's not, then I want to know how to roll out my own ASIO port locally (I might propose for it to be included in the official port as well if it's good enough).

Is it able to use ASIO with WebAssembly?
