" summary

Presents the Salami Method: a layered architecture that keeps a cross‑platform C++ core, a public C++ API, a thin C API boundary, then tiny platform trampolines (DLL exports, JNI) and native wrappers. Shows a concrete OpenCV example compiled with OpenCV + Emscripten to run a hue‑rotation “party parrot” demo in the browser with a live slider, handles conversions and exceptions at module boundaries, and reports asm.js/WebAssembly runs roughly ~50% of native speed.
