| Feature | NaCl / PNaCl (Legacy) | WebAssembly (Wasm) (Modern Standard) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Browser sandbox for running native (C/C++) code; runs a subset of x86/ARM/MIPS code | Binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine; a compilation target for high-level languages like C/C++, Rust, and Go | | Portability | PNaCl provided portability by compiling to a portable bitcode format; still required Chrome | Built on open standards and supported by all major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) | | Integration | Required a dedicated plugin; interaction via messages with JavaScript | Seamlessly integrated with JavaScript and the Web APIs; no plugin needed | | Maturity | Discontinued; development and security support ceased in 2021 | Active and mature; supported by a large ecosystem of tools, compilers, and community resources | | Performance | Near-native speeds, as code runs directly on the processor in a sandbox | Near-native speeds, with ongoing optimizations for features like SIMD and multithreading | | Security | Strong sandbox, but as a discontinued technology, it no longer receives security patches | Designed with security as a core principle; executes in a safe, sandboxed environment separate from the host system |
Building applications for NaCl required specialized toolchains (the NaCl SDK) and deep knowledge of low-level languages like C/C++, making the barrier to entry too high for standard web developers. nacl-web-plug-in
Maintaining a secure sandbox for raw machine binaries required constant vigilance. As web architectures shifted and security vulnerabilities became more complex, the engineering overhead required to keep NaCl secure across different operating systems became unsustainable.
