One of the main rationales behind creating shublang is that it should be executed on the browser. Evaluate options such as Transcript, webasm etc.

Looked at various transpiling options such as Transcrypt and Skulpt, but they fall short in terms of implementing some of the standard libraries, an example being the JSON library. With WebAssembly gaining traction, it makes sense to leverage Mozilla's Pyodide project which essentially brings Python and it's data science stack to the browser. This seems to be the path of least resistance at this stage for shublang to be supported in the browser.
