+# Python WebAssembly (WASM) build
+
+This directory contains configuration and helpers to facilitate cross
+compilation of CPython to WebAssembly (WASM).
+
+## wasm32-emscripten build
+
+Cross compiling to wasm32-emscripten platform needs the [Emscripten](https://emscripten.org/)
+tool chain and a build Python interpreter.
+All commands below are relative to a repository checkout.
+
+### Compile a build Python interpreter
+
+```shell
+mkdir -p builddir/build
+pushd builddir/build
+../../configure -C
+make -j$(nproc)
+popd
+```
+
+### Fetch and build additional emscripten ports
+
+```shell
+embuilder build zlib
+```
+
+### Cross compile to wasm32-emscripten
+
+```shell
+mkdir -p builddir/emscripten
+pushd builddir/emscripten
+
+CONFIG_SITE=../../Tools/wasm/config.site-wasm32-emscripten \
+  emconfigure ../../configure -C \
+    --host=wasm32-unknown-emscripten \
+    --build=$(../../config.guess) \
+    --with-build-python=$(pwd)/../build/python
+
+emmake make -j$(nproc) python.html
+```
+
+### Test in browser
+
+Serve `python.html` with a local webserver and open the file in a browser.
+
+```shell
+emrun python.html
+```
+
+or
+
+```shell
+python3 -m http.server
+```
