From the git repo:

    webMARS is a browser implementation of MARS MIPS 4.5: editor, assembler, simulator, help system, and classic MARS tools in a single web UI.

    Overview

    - Single-page IDE for editing, assembling, running, stepping, backstepping, and debugging MIPS programs.
    
    - Multi-window desktop/mobile UI with registers, text/data segments, labels, messages, Run I/O, and tool windows.
    
    - Built-in help system with localized pages and embedded reference material.
    
    - Persistent browser workspace for files, session restore, settings, and tool state.
    
    - Single JavaScript assembler and simulator core, with no native runtime dependency.
And from [0]:

    MARS is a lightweight interactive development environment for programming in MIPS assembly language, intended for educational-level use with Patterson and Hennessy's Computer Organization and Design.
