Symbolica 3.0: symbolic computing in your browser

Symbolica is a fast computer algebra system written in Rust. With the 3.0 release, Symbolica supports WebAssembly: you can now run it locally in the browser. There is also an official Typst plugin now, which is also free for commercial use!

The blog post provides benchmarks of WASM versus native builds, showing WASM often only being only 1.5-2x slower.

I hope that seeing Symbolica in action in the browser will inspire other crate maintainers to make their crates compile on WASM.
