Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Clang, a compiler front end for C/C++, can now be run directly within a web browser. This is done using the Wasmer JS SDK, which allows compiling C code to WebAssembly. This development opens up possibilities for online IDEs to adopt the SDK and enable users to compile and run C programs within their browsers.
