WebAssembly or Wasm is a portable binary code instruction format introduced in the year 2015. It enables the compilation of high-level programming languages like Java, C, and C++ rust. In wasm, a web developer writes the code in any of these programming languages, and then it is to be run on the web. This task is supported by WebAssembly. WebAssembly does the task of compiling the code into a bytecode that can run in the web browser. This code is then converted into the native machine code and thus finally executed.
To Quick start with WebAssembly there is an application which have some examples in Rust Programming language.
Install the WebAssembly Binary Toolkit.
brew install wabtInstall Rust with rustup.
Add wasm32-unknown-unknown target.
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknownInstall wasm-pack.
cargo install wasm-packBuild all examples.
./build.shStart a webserver like es-dev-server
that supports application/wasm MIME type.
npm install -g es-dev-server
