Walrus Alternatives

walrus reviews and mentions

• Wasm compiler in rust

  I have used https://github.com/rustwasm/walrus before, but only for consuming wasm binaries. I believe it can generate wasm binaries from scratch, too.

• For building a language/interpreter: Wasmer or Wasmtime?
  5 projects | /r/rust | 9 Jun 2021

  For actually generating wasm, I think the walrus crate might be the closest thing to what you need. Check out this example of building a factorial function: https://github.com/rustwasm/walrus/blob/master/examples/build-wasm-from-scratch.rs

• Minecraft's April Fools joke is written in Rust!
  1 project | /r/rust | 1 Apr 2021

  Minecraft's April Fools joke this year (https://plus.minecraft.net) is a minecraft-themed screensaver that you can download and run for windows, or that you can run in the browser. I noticed that the browser version link said "requires browser with adequate amount of modern magic", which made me wonder what specific web technologies it was using. Opening the network tab of devtools, I noticed it had fetched a file called "mcse_web_bg.wasm" (https://plus.minecraft.net/pkg/mcse_web_bg.wasm), which is wasm-bindgen's naming convention! (I'm assuming the mcse stands for "minecraft screensaver edition") I disassembled the wasm file, and yep, tons of rust-related stuff in the data sections. In the static memory, it looks like it has webgl shader sources, which answers my question of which web technologies it uses. And then, the producers section for sure shows that it's Rust!
