Can you please tell us more about this compilation environment?

I want to evaluate how much effort Gnulib should put into supporting this
environment.

I see [1] and [2], but

  - How do _you_ compile and run a program in this environment?
    The same way as in [2], or do you do it differently?

  - [1] promises that the programs "may run anywhere—from browsers to clouds
    to embedded devices". How do you run such a program in a browser?
    How do you run it in the "cloud"? How do you run it on a memory-
    restricted computer?
