Today I presented to the Wasm CG a proposal for fine-grained dynamic code generation as a core WebAssembly feature. The proposal is now at phase 1!

Periodic reminder (since I apparently don't talk about it enough) —

If you are interested in a hands-on way to learn #wasm, check out the book that @marianoguerra.org and I wrote together!

WebAssembly from the Ground Up @wasmgroundup.com · Mar 10

Excited to announce the official launch of our online book, WebAssembly from the Ground Up! 🎉

It's the book we wish we'd had 3 years ago.

No messing with tools and frameworks. It's a hands-on guide to the core of Wasm: the instruction set and module format.

Link below. 👇

Learn Wasm by building a simple compiler in JavaScript. No compiler expertise necessary. All the code is in the book; we'll take you through it step by step. Get your hands dirty and see for yourself what WebAssembly is all about.

Working on a diagram for an upcoming @wasmgroundup.com blog post.

Diagram showing WebAssembly bytecode execution with a horizontal memory strip containing hexadecimal values (41 03 41 02 6c 41 04 6a 0a 46). Above the strip are labels 'instructions' and 'pc' (program counter) with arrows pointing to specific bytes. The program counter highlights byte '6c'. Below the strip, purple arrows point to different instruction bytes, labeled with their corresponding WebAssembly operations: 'i32.const' (pointing to 41 03 and 41 02), 'i32.mul' (pointing to 6c), 'i32.add' (pointing to 6a), and 'i32.eq' (pointing to 46). On the right side is a stack representation showing values '2' and '3' in rectangular boxes.

(Needed a thread here where I can post new examples!)

Dodrio (by Nick Fitzgerald) is an experimental virtual DOM library for Rust and Wasm. It uses bump allocation for the VDOM nodes and uses a stack machine language to represent change lists: github.com/fitzgen/dodrio

Change List as Stack Machine

The change list that represents the difference between how the physical DOM currently looks, and our ideal virtual DOM state is encoded in a tiny stack machine language. A stack machine works particularly well for applying DOM diffs, a task that is essentially a tree traversal.

did you manage to fix this?

it's joke about the proliferation of directives instead of using something else.

This week the W3C WebAssembly Community Group is holding an in-person meeting in Munich.

We (@dubroy.com and @marianoguerra.org) are planning to be there. Patrick tomorrow, and both of us on Thursday for the Research Day.

If you see us, come say hi!

hi! thanks for buying the book :)

I can't see the sale on lemon squeezy's dashboard so I can't send you the access code.

maybe you can reject the payment and try again? contact lemon squeezy?
