This is very cool! Thanks for doing it! I will take a look asap, but I am leaning towards having a separate repo just to keep the responsibilities split a bit, basically similar to how we have https://github.com/bodono/scs-python. Is that feasible to do? |

Yes, upon further reflection I agree it is cleaner to separate it. I'll make a separate repo and open a new pull request with only docs integration (not right now, but soon). |

To code up a little web app, I needed a convex solver with support for exponential cones, and SCS was the solver I found that was easiest to compile to WebAssembly. I added a target
make wasmthat produces filesscs.wasmandscs.js, wherescs.jscan then be loaded either in the browser or inside a Node.js environment and can be used to solve programs. I also added some convenient bindings. It works pretty well in my experience!I could keep the binding code in a separate repo focussed on providing the wasm version, but I thought it's a pretty minimal addition, so it could also be part of the main repository if you think it is a good idea.
A compiled version of the docs including my local additions is here:

with new pages:
The example page contains a neat "live demo":
