WebAssembly

Interacting with WebAssembly memory

One of the most interesting features of WebAssembly is its memory model. Despite providing a system that allows for direct access and control of raw bytes, it does this in a way that offers more safety than one would typically expect out of low-level environments like C/C++. WASM memory

Embedded WebAssembly on a D1 Mini with WASM3

With WebAssembly (WASM) emerging outside the browser, several options for embedded WASM have begun to mature. One such platform is WASM3. It positions itself as "The fastest WebAssembly interpreter, and the most universal runtime" with cross-platform support across a range of architectures and operating systems. It's able to achieve this

Making games on WASM4 with Rust

WASM4 is a virtual game console that's very reminiscent of the Pico8 system. It's an idealized system with a display format, sound system, and controller inputs similar to retro gaming consoles without the inconvenience of physical hardware. Games are distributed as self-contained WebAssembly (WASM) modules and are fondly referred to

Let's explore code signing with WebAssembly

💡If you're just looking to sign your binaries, I recommend using a tool that has been validated and tested by the community. This blog post aims to cover the process of code signing using WASM as a medium and may not cover every use case. A few I found while

The WebAssembly Text Format

While WebAssembly's primary distribution format is a binary file, the spec describes a textual representation called the WebAssembly Text Format[1] or WAT for short. While WASM binary files are designed to be as small and compact as possible making them ideal for distribution and transmission over the internet, WAT
