WebAssembly Sandbox Demo

This is a demo created to showcase the security and sandbox execution of WebAssembly. It is a basic TicTacToe website where any user is allowed to upload code compiled to WASM that implements a bot that plays TicTacToe. Due to the built in sandboxing of WebAssembly this is safe.

To find out more about the related security and the project as a whole you can read our report here. This was done as a project in the course DD2525 Language-Based Security at KTH.
