You can type in the pane: nothing here compiles, so what you type cannot run, and the page says which bytes it is running the moment the text stops being the recorded file. There is no standard input, no filesystem and no threads on this target, and one sample fails on purpose for exactly that reason.

Run executes iyi-io.wasm, the module the compiler built from this file, in your browser. How this works

Try it on your machine

Copy the program into io.iyi, change something, and run it. Only a compiler on your own machine can run what you wrote.

sh, after installing
$ iyi run io.iyi
