    Description

    Autodesk Research has a number of C++ toolkits—e.g., for spatial analysis and multi-agent simulation—that would previously only have been used in desktop or server-side applications. With Emscripten and WebAssembly, we can now take these codebases and use them directly in browser-based applications, whether using Autodesk Viewer, Tandem, or Forma. In this session, we will take a close look at bringing C++ codebases to the web, using a Forma extension as an example. Come along to experience the power you can bring to Autodesk Platform Services applications by integrating advanced libraries and toolkits via WebAssembly!

    Key Learnings

    • Learn the history of Emscripten and WebAssembly.
    • Learn about the benefits WebAssembly brings to Autodesk Platform Services applications.
    • Learn how to bring C++ libraries to the web via Emscripten and WebAssembly.
    • Learn how to create an Forma extension using WebAssembly components.
