    Big fan of this author's work.

    They have a Gameboy emulator written in C, which can be compiled to WASM and run in the browser.

    I learned a lot from the code.

    Also I love this project with a bunch of demos in hand-written WebAssembly Text (WAT) format, which is like low-level Lisp that works only with raw memory, numbers, and minimal syntax.

    Then I discovered the same author is quite active in the WebAssembly ecosystem, including specs and tooling. Fascinating stuff!

    There are lots of solutions to this, I was randomly looking into this yesterday purely out of curiosity and it looks to me like wasmi is the current go-to option.

    Hello guys, i was looking for a no std wasm interpreter and i found out about wasmi: https://github.com/paritytech/wasmi/, but when i tried it i get an error module env not found. I suspect that in my program i call an extern function putchar() to be able to print and wasmi doesnt support that, but other interpreters i tried support it, for example wain. Are there any alrernatives, or am i doing sth wrong here. I dont have a deep wasm knowledge, i was just wanted to experiment with wasm in a no std enviroment. Heres my code:
