Getting Started with WebAssembly

Learn the basics of WebAssembly and how to get started with your first project.

Introduction

Welcome to the Getting Started with WebAssembly tutorial. In this tutorial, we'll cover the basics of WebAssembly and guide you through creating your first WebAssembly project.

Prerequisites

Basic understanding of programming concepts
Familiarity with a programming language (e.g., C, C++, Rust)
A code editor or IDE installed on your system

Step 1: Setting Up Your Environment

To start working with WebAssembly, you'll need to set up your development environment. This includes installing a WebAssembly compiler and a code editor or IDE.

// Example command to install WebAssembly compiler (e.g., wasm-pack)
npm install -g wasm-pack

Step 2: Creating Your First WebAssembly Project

Once your environment is set up, you can create your first WebAssembly project. We'll guide you through the process of creating a simple "Hello, World!" application.

// Example WebAssembly code (in Wat format)
(module
 (func $hello (export "hello")
 ;; Print "Hello, World!" to the console
 )
)
