tl;dr: GNU Radio Companion has been ported to run entirely in the browser, with the DSP stack and Qt GUI sinks compiled to WebAssembly. It reads/writes standard .grc files, renders live spectrum, waterfall, and constellation plots, and requires no Python, install, or server. It can also communicate with RTL-SDR, PlutoSDR, and HackRF devices via WebUSB.
HN Discussion:
  • Enthusiastic praise for the project as cool and useful
  • Sharing related personal projects using WebUSB/WASM for RF work
  • Criticism of the demo's poor onboarding and unclear documentation
  • ~Reflection on GNU Radio's steep learning curve, willing to retry
  • Appreciation for the interactive GUI reminiscent of MaxMSP
