Description

I'm new to web-assembly, but I think I know what the answer might be.

My understanding is that only HTTPS and WebSockets are permissible from a wasm app. So SSH.NET isn't going to fly on this one.

Am I mistaken?

Any thoughts on making an SSH connection from a web-assembly running in a browser?
