The page loads fairly quickly, I guess most people miss out the loading screen with the link to the github repo: https://github.com/ahilss/wavacity

So yes, this is a WebAssembly app. It loads a 5.2MB .wasm file and 2.3MB .data file.

Neat, isn't it?

Also impressive is that is smaller than every other release artifact: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/releases

Why is that? Has it some features removed? Or how else can that be?

Edit I guess the wxWidgets lib is smaller, as it is more incomplete.
