  • CoWasm: An alternative to Emscripten, based on Zig (demo: Python in the browser)
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Oct 2022
    This is a slim alternative to Emscripten which focuses only on the C/C++ <=> JS interoperability part:

  • From a WebAssembly Perspective

    There's actually a super interesting project called wajic here:

    https://github.com/schellingb/wajic

    It's basically clang plus wasm-opt and some magic pixie dust which enables some of the most important features of Emscripten, but without the whole 'technology zoo' :)

    There's now an interesting alternative to Emscripten called WaJIC:

    https://github.com/schellingb/wajic

    Enables most of the "Emscripten magic" (like embedding Javascript code into C/C++ files), but in a more bare bones package (apart from clang it essentially just uses the wasm-opt tool from Binaryen for post-processing).

    (to be clear, wajic has fewer out-of-the-box features than Emscripten, but it might be an alternative for very small projects which don't need all the compatibility shims which are coming with Emscripten, while still providing tools for calling between C/C++ and JS.

  • Show HN: How to compile C/C++ for WASM, pure Clang, no libs, no framework
    13 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 11 Apr 2022
    Since I haven't seen it mentioned in the comments yet, here's another interesting project in the general area of "WASM without Emscripten":

    https://github.com/schellingb/wajic

    This provides an alternative implementation of Emscripten's EM_JS() magic (embed Javascript snippets right in the C/C++ source code), but without the Emscripten SDK. It still needs some additional tools next to Clang, so it sits somewhere between "pure Clang" and "full Emscripten SDK".

  • Writing bindings to `dos-like` for Rust: some lessons learned
    5 projects | dev.to | 15 Mar 2022
    Alas, although there is WebAssembly support in the original dos-like, it is still not supported in the bindings for Rust. It would require a Rust toolchain to integrate with WAjic, which I am pretty much unfamiliar with. If you have any idea on how to achieve this, I would love to know.
