Idea: Use the WebAssembly port of TeXmacs with an interactive tutorial for marketing purposes

The tutorial document would always load on startup and encourage visitors to complete simple exercises (e.g., type various equations) by editing the document itself.

I think that it might be better to advertised as a “Web App”, clarifying that it is a partial version of the desktop version, but is somehow portable and could serve as a demo.

But it can be used as a web demo now. Making it a usable “web app” requires more work in the port.

Any kind of usability still require a lot of work. I presented the port only in the texmacs-dev list for a reason. Right now it is mostly for evaluation of the browser/webasm platform, but many problems have to be solved before it can be presented to an average user. I would warn to publicize it too early.
