From Rust to beyond: The WebAssembly galaxy

This blog post is part of a series explaining how to send Rust beyond earth, into many different galaxies: Prelude, The WebAssembly galaxy (this episode), The ASM.js galaxy, The C galaxy, The PHP galaxy, and The NodeJS galaxy. The first galaxy that our Rust parser will explore is the WebAssembly (WASM) galaxy. This post will … Continue reading From Rust to beyond: The WebAssembly galaxy →
