    1.  How does it use emscripten when emscripten requires LLVM bytecode and Monkey2 compiles using gcc?
    2. Does Ted2 use OpenGL for rendering?
    3. Performance wise… a blank canvas gives about half FPS that a blank canvas in BlitzMax would create.  Is that something to be concerned about?  Will the performance ratio be similar compared to BlitzMax (0.5x)?

    How does it use emscripten when emscripten requires LLVM bytecode and Monkey2 compiles using gcc?

    Emscripten provides a full clang c++ toolchain for translating c++ -> llvm.

    1. Does Ted2 use OpenGL for rendering?

    Sort of. Mx2 uses the gles20 api for all rendering at the moment, but on Windows this is converted to d3d9/d3d11 via the ‘angle’ library.

    Hopefully not!
