Emscripten Alternatives
Emscripten is described as 'LLVM to JavaScript compiler. It takes LLVM bitcode (which can be generated from C/C++ using Clang, or any other language that can be converted into LLVM bitcode) and compiles that into JavaScript, which can be run on the web (or anywhere else JavaScript can run)' and is an app. There are three alternatives to Emscripten for Mac, Windows and Linux. The best Emscripten alternative is Cheerp. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try Clue (compiler) or CrossBridge.

It compiles the LLVM output of a C++ compiler to JavaScript, just like Emscripten.
