Wasm
Web Assembly
- This allows us to compile code into the browser:
- It runs a virtual machine underneath the hood
- It provides better performance and can be implemented with JavaScript
- It’s basically a microprocessor in the browser
- Web Assembly is stack-based (stack algorithms)
- Web Assembly does not know what the string is 1
Web Assembly Module
-
It’s a binary file:
- The wasm can interact with JavaScript
- Yet it cannot talk directly with HTML
