Web export?

I know there are some GBA emulators that run in the browser. Does anyone have recommendations/tips for how to get a cart embedded in such a way that you can play it straight out of the itch page without downloading or installing anything?

I've tested some emulators, and I think that this is  the best one: http://endrift.github.io/gbajs/

Sorry, this doesn't work

This is the GBA emulator that some games use: https://gba.ninja/ Idk how to export it as a html file

Thanks; that looks great! It plays my rom nicely.

Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to have any documentation; the readme refers to a wiki that no longer exists. I want to publish a version which includes my rom and doesn’t make people select it with a file upload dialog. Do you know if there are any examples of such a thing published elsewhere that I could follow? I don’t know any Javascript but if I saw another game do this I bet I could figure it out.

Edit: oops; posted before I saw that you gave a second suggestion. gbaninja looks like it has better docs but it crashes loading my game while gbajs plays it flawlessly.

I found a still-maintained fork called gbajs2 and asked about this there. They gave a good answer; looks pretty easy! https://github.com/andychase/gbajs2/issues/24
