This is really cool! Suggestion: find a small MSI file that you can host as part of the demo and add a "load example file" button - that way people can try it out even if they don't have an MSI file to hand already.

Thanks for the suggestion! I just added a button to load a small example MSI file.
Minor thing: When I load the page and click "Load example file" while Pyodide is still loading I see a stacktrace for a short time. Perhaps disable the button until it's loaded?
I don't know the license around it but hosting orca.msi would be a silly thing to do
It looks like orca.msi uses external cab files, so maybe a bit harder to do than just fetching a single file MSI into the Pyodide file system. If the license allows, it would be interesting to have as an option for the example.
