ROS2WASM

ROS2WASM compiles ROS 2 to WebAssembly, so robotics software runs in a browser tab with nothing to install.

Why it matters

Zero-install ROS makes it far easier to teach robotics, share reproducible demos, and connect web interfaces directly to robots. ROS2WASM runs ROS 2 nodes, topics and services inside the browser and builds on RoboStack’s conda-forge packages.
