I just want to stress the *prerelease* status of this. This is not a stable version of the SDK, and the wiki download pages still point to the previous release which is stable.
Please test with this release and report bugs if you find any. As Jukka said we need people to do that in order for a future stable release with the new backend to be solid. - Alon On Tue, Mar 4, 2014 at 1:12 PM, Jukka Jylänki <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > for some time now, the Emscripten incoming branch has switched its focus > on the new Clang-based compiler backend.
