Wasmer takes WebAssembly libraries mainstream with WAI

1. wit-bindgen

   1 31 1,131 9.4 Rust

   A language binding generator for WebAssembly interface types

   

   Interesting little discussion linked about this fork of WAI from wit-bindgen:

3. proposal-decimal

   2 18 539 7.2 HTML

   Built-in exact decimal numbers for JavaScript

   

   would it be possible, for example, to access the standard decimal library of C# or Python via Javascript, thus not having to wait for the TC39 spec / implementation? [1]

4. wai

   3 2 115 0.0 Rust

   A language binding generator for `wai` (a precursor to WebAssembly interface types) (by wasmerio)

   

   Decimal values are not currently represented as a first-class type by WAI (as int, floats or string types are) but I believe it would be a great idea to do so.

   Would you mind opening an issue in the WAI repository [1] so we can follow up there? Thanks!

5. vscode-wasm

   4 3 135 4.4 Rust

   WebAssembly extension for VSCode (by wasmerio)

   

   It's been this way for a little bit already (actually since 3 years ago! [1]).

   It was an intentional thing though, because we want to put this extension under a common group, not something that only Wasmer owns... that's why we haven't changed it yet. But I agree that probably using WebAssembly Foundation is perhaps not the best name :)

6. wasmer

   5 141 19,639 10.0 Rust

   🚀 Fast, secure, lightweight containers based on WebAssembly

   

   I'm not entirely convinced Wasmer will ever be able to shake its constant controversies.

   I'm by no means a fan of the Bytecode Alliance, and would much prefer a startup tackle the problems that Wasmer is tackling, but between the trademarks [1], the lackluster response to the trademarks (How did you not know your lawyers were trying to trademark “WebAssembly”? Seriously?) [2], the working conditions [3], the drama surrounding the BCA [4][5], and everything else, I don't think Wasmer is the right choice either, at least not under current leadership.

7. wasi-sdk

   6 12 1,362 7.7 CMake

   WASI-enabled WebAssembly C/C++ toolchain

   

   A more lightweight tool than emscripten is the WASI SDK (https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-sdk/releases). However, it doesn't generate JS or HTML.

8. component-model

   7 44 1,058 9.4 Python

   Repository for design and specification of the Component Model

   

   > WASM is a runtime only. It does not try to define a component model.

   This GitHub page seems to contradict that:
