The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Rust + WASM + Typescript [+ React]
There are many options, but what worked best for me is compiling with cargo-wasi and loading the resulting Wasm file with browser_wasi_shim. Using wasm32-wasi instead of wasm32-unknown-unknown requires a bit more work (the communication with JS has to be set up manually), but gives the flexibility of having just a Wasm file that can be dropped in and loaded dynamically. (There's wit-bindgen for generating wrapping code according to an interface definition but I didn't have much success with it.)

#![no_std] with WASI is more complicated than I thought it would be

#![no_std] with WASI is more complicated than I thought it would be
At this point, I look into Bytecode Alliance's WASI rust bindings, used by Rust's std.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing cargo-wasi and wasi you can also consider the following projects:
wee_alloc - The Wasm-Enabled, Elfin Allocator
WASI - WebAssembly System Interface
compiler-builtins - Porting `compiler-rt` intrinsics to Rust
wasmer - 🚀 The leading Wasm Runtime supporting WASIX, WASI and Emscripten
browser_wasi_shim - A WASI shim for in the browser
wasmtime - A fast and secure runtime for WebAssembly
wasi-libc - WASI libc implementation for WebAssembly
lol_alloc - Like wee_alloc, but smaller since I used skinnier letters in the name.
