webassembly wat text format to binary compiler

Project mention: Understanding Every Byte in a WASM Module | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-23

For some time I've been fascinated by the codebase of a small WAT compiler written in JavaScript.
https://github.com/stagas/wat-compiler/blob/main/story.txt
And I mean "small" as a real complement to how readable the entire compiler is. It's also been a great way to appreciate the design of the WASM text format and WASM overall. It's not a Lisp but has a similar feel to it.
I've been meaning to get more fluent at writing WAT directly, not for any practical purpose but just for pleasure of it. I could see myself gradually building up some abstractions to help me deveolp larger programs, perhaps a slightly higher-level language.
