Native Client Support and
WebAssembly Development

As Google phases out Native Client (NaCl), the web development landscape evolves toward more scalable, secure, and cross-browser solutions.
WebAssembly (WASM) is at the forefront of this transformation, delivering superior performance and flexibility. Future-proof your applications by adopting WASM
and modern web standards today.

WebAssembly The Future Beyond NaCl

Native Client (NaCl) once enabled high-performance native code in browsers, but its limitations, restricted browser support and a lack of long-term viability led to its deprecation. WebAssembly (WASM) emerges as the superior alternative, offering unmatched cross-browser compatibility, enhanced security, and optimized performance for modern web applications.

NaCl vs WASM: The Next Generation of Web Performance

Native Client (NaCl) was once a powerful tool for running native code in the browser, but its Chrome dependency and limited adaptability made it obsolete. WebAssembly (WASM) is the future offering superior performance, security, and cross-browser compatibility.

Feature Native Client (NaCl) WebAssembly (WASM)
Browser Support Exclusive to Chrome Universal support (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, etc.)
Performance High but restricted to Chrome Near-native execution across all modern browsers
Security Secure but confined to Chrome’s ecosystem Industry-standard security with sandboxing and memory safety
Cross-Platform Compatibility Limited to Chrome users Seamlessly runs across all devices and operating systems
Language Support Primarily C/C++ Supports multiple languages (C, C++, Rust, Go, Python, etc.)

Why Upgrade to WebAssembly?

Moving from NaCl to WebAssembly empowers businesses with enhanced scalability, security, and performance ensuring
seamless user experiences and future-ready applications.

Key Benefits of WASM:

Universal Browser Support

WASM works across all modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge), unlike NaCl, which was Chrome-only.

Superior Performance

Delivers near-native speed for high-performance apps like games and data tools.

Enhanced Security

Built on modern web standards for better security across all browsers.

Cross-Platform Flexibility

Compatible with all devices and operating systems, ensuring wider reach.

Long-Term Sustainability

Evolving technology backed by major browser vendors for future growth.
