Converting Legacy Apps to JavaScript
written by
Wolfgang Christian, Doug Brown, and Robert Hanson
The lack of Java support in browsers, on mobile devices, and on Chromebooks was a major setback for education because thousands of Java simulations developed and used by teachers are no longer usable. To solve this problem, the Open Source Physics (OSP) team partnered with Bob Hanson's group at St. Olaf College to convert OSP Java programs to JavaScript using St. Olaf's SwingJS transpiler. This conversion allows us to republish many of our legacy apps as platform-independent web pages in the AAPT-ComPADRE OSP collection. This talk describes the conversion process and shows examples of converted programs.
