What is WebAssembly?

WebAssembly (Wasm) is a low-level binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine, designed as a compilation target for high-level languages.

Faster Execution

Runs at near-native speed, making it ideal for performance-critical applications.

Cross-Platform

Runs across all major browsers without needing plugins or interpreters.

How WebAssembly Works

1. Compilation

Languages like Rust or C++ compile to WebAssembly binary (.wasm) files.

2. Execution

Browser executes WebAssembly code at near-native speed via its virtual machine.

Real-World Applications

3D Rendering

Power complex 3D graphics and real-time simulations in browsers.

Audio Processing

Real-time audio manipulation and synthesis using WebAudio APIs.

Machine Learning

Run ML models natively in the browser with frameworks like TensorFlow.js.
