| ### Technical details |
| Compilation is currently a two-step process. In the bindings generation step, |
| the source files are compiled into `compiled/bindings.cpp.js` with the |
| `PRINT_BINDINGS` symbol defined. This application is then executed via Node.js |
| and will print JavaScript wrappers for the C++ classes to |
| -`compiled/bindings.js` according to definitions within the `EMSCRIPTEN_BINDINGS` |
| +`build/bindings.js` according to definitions within the `EMSCRIPTEN_BINDINGS` |
| macro in `compiled/bindings.cpp`. |
| In the actual compilation step the source files are compiled into |
| -`lib/compiled.js` without the `PRINT_BINDINGS` symbol, so that the |

| `EMSCRIPTEN_BINDINGS` macro ignores its contents and merely emits some generic |
| functions necessary for the JavaScript bindings to work. The previously |
| generated `compiled/bindings.js` file is added to the end of Emscripten output. |
| The binding generation approach is heavily inspired by |
| [embind](http://kripken.github.io/emscripten-site/docs/porting/connecting_cpp_and_javascript/embind.html). |
| However, embind doesn't use a separate build step to produce the bindings, the |
| bindings are rather generated dynamically at run time. As a side-effect, it |
