  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • gc

    Branch of the spec repo scoped to discussion of GC integration in WebAssembly

  • Yes, that's definitely true: a single GC will not be optimal for everything, or even possible. Atm interior pointers are not supported at all, for example, but they are on the roadmap for later:

    What launched now is enough WasmGC to support a big and useful set of languages (Java, Kotlin, Dart, OCaml, Scheme), but a lot more work will be required here!

  • php-wasm

    PHP in Browser, powered by WebAssembly.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • eliom

    Multi-tier framework for programming web and mobile applications in OCaml.

  • There is a pretty complete wasm_of_ocaml port to the Eliom web framework here https://github.com/ocsigen/eliom/pull/767

    It seems like it’s a relatively easy swap from js_of_ocaml to WASM. That’s the option I’ve chosen for my experiments.

  • wasmer

    🚀 The leading Wasm Runtime supporting WASIX, WASI and Emscripten
