Note that opening the files locally (via `file://`) may not work
due to browsers' Same-Origin Policy. However, there are some workarounds:
* On Linux, the "wasm streaming compile failed: TypeError: Response has unsupported MIME type /
falling back to ArrayBuffer instantiation" warnings can be worked around by
adding the line `application/wasm wasm` to `~/.mime.types` or `/etc/mime.types`
* In Firefox, if your files reside in different directories, the same-origin policy can be
made more lax for `file://` URIs by disabling the
[security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy](http://kb.mozillazine.org/Security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy)
option. **But be aware** of the security implications of disabling this option!
