What is CheerpX?
CheerpX is an x86 virtualization technology for running executables and operating systems entirely client-side. It’s an always available, zero-cost virtual machine with guaranteed data privacy, powered by a WebAssembly JIT engine.
CheerpX is perfect for web-based IDEs, programming tutorials, virtual machines, and interactive demos.
CheerpX enables you to run existing 32-bit x86 native binaries and Linux distributions:
- Without modifications
- Without recompilation
- Without source-code
- Fully client-side
It can also be used to provide a secure sandbox for untrusted code. CheerpX is very robust and deployed as part of 
WebVM and PythonFiddle. It is also used in production environments as part of 
CheerpX for Flash, an enterprise solution to run legacy Adobe Flash content in the browser.
