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.

Fortran on WebAssembly
https://github.com/WebAssembly/wabt/blob/main/wasm2c/README.... is a straightforward way to take an untrusted application (compiled already to wasm) and turn it into C that you can embed into your application or compile to a linkable DLL. I believe this approach has been used to sandbox untrusted libraries in production by Mozilla: https://hacks.mozilla.org/2021/12/webassembly-and-back-again...

Understanding Every Byte in a WASM Module
This seems sort of like understanding machine code vs assembly; it's much easier to learn WAT and translate to/from WASM as necessary using the wabt tools [0].
Either way its super cool how simple WebAssembly is, you can really get your hands dirty and understand exactly every detail of how your program runs!

You mean this? https://github.com/WebAssembly/wabt/blob/main/wasm2c/README....
That seems like quite an undertaking. But at that point, It would make sense to cut out WASM entirely like https://datastation.multiprocess.io/blog/2022-05-12-sqlite-i...

WebAssembly: byte-code of the future
The .wat file can be compiled to a .wasm using wat2wasm which is part of the WebAssembly Toolkit CLI tools:

Is anyone working/creating tools for wasm in C?
it is in C++ https://github.com/WebAssembly/wabt/blob/main/src/tools/wat2wasm.cc

How to hide script file?
I don't think you are building an application that will use Native Client technologies How to extract source code from Native Client .nexe file, migrate to WebAssembly? #1864 so that would be superfluous, and frankly, useless in your case.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (5/2023)!
I'm trying to get a basic Rust webassembly program, then porting it to C via wasm2c. The example works, but when I use wasm-bindgen and analyze it with wasm2wat, I get an import "env". The issue is that in C (wasm2c) it comes out as struct Z_env_instance_t; and I can't instantiate it (as in Z_env_instance_t env; to pass it's address to Z_wasm_client_bg_instantiate.

Storybook 8 Beta
First, we switched the default compiler for new projects from Babel to SWC (Speedy Web Compiler). SWC is dramatically faster than Babel and requires zero configuration. We’ll continue to support Babel in any project currently using it.

Implementing auth flow as fast as possible using NestJS
As the reference explains “**SWC** (Speedy Web Compiler) is an extensible Rust-based platform that can be used for both compilation and bundling. Using SWC with Nest CLI is a great and simple way to significantly speed up your development process.”

Ruby Outperforms C: Breaking the Catch-22
This is specifically about breaking the myth that performing expensive self-contained operations (e.g, parsing GraphQL) in a native extension (C, Rust, etc.) is always faster than the interpreted language.
The JS ecosystem has the same problem, people think rewriting everything in Rust will be a magic fix. In practice, there's always the problem highlighted in the post (transitioning is expensive, causes optimization bailouts), as well as the cost of actually getting the results back into Node-land. This is why SWC abandoned the JS API for writing plugins - constantly bouncing back and forth while traversing AST nodes was even slower than Babel (e.g https://github.com/swc-project/swc/issues/1392#issuecomment-...)

Show HN: Ezno, a TypeScript checker written in Rust, is now open source
Very cool! I'm curious, is this intended for dev tooling?
For example, I could see this (or something similar) being useful as the engine for a typescript language server that would be faster than the standard one
But if it's not aimed at 1:1 with tsc, would it be intended more for something like swc[1]?
Or what would you expect people to use this for, besides just being a cool project to learn from?

TypeScript team released an explorer for performance tuning
This is... good news, but I still cannot fathom using the default Typescript compiler for regular development. Seriously, leave the type-checking to your IDE and CICD chain, and switch to using tsx (https://www.npmjs.com/package/tsx) or swc (https://swc.rs/) and you will _immediately_ notice the difference in speed and productivity.
