webspace

Userspace, in the browser.

The web presentation layer: HTML, DOM, Canvas and WebAssembly bindings around concepts defined elsewhere.

Its place in the system

webspace translates ecosystem concepts into the browser environment. Platform bindings live here so lower-level crates do not need to know what a DOM, Canvas or browser is.

The boundary

Belongs here

  • Browser-facing bindings and presentation
  • DOM and Canvas interaction
  • WebAssembly target integration

Does not belong here

  • Generic perceptual semantics that work outside the web
  • System calls
  • Physical-world simulation
  • Virtualization

Today

Current surface

  • HTML abstractions
  • DOM helpers
  • Canvas support
  • wasm32-specific browser bindings
  • Integration with humans

rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
cargo check --target wasm32-unknown-unknown

wasm-bindgen and web-sys are explicit platform bindings, not a general dependency philosophy.

From abstraction to reality. userspace.party keeps conceptual borders explicit: abstractions in ample, process mechanisms in userspace, machines in computers, human meaning in humans, browser presentation in webspace, and physical-world simulation and control in twins.
