Understanding Every Byte in a WASM Module
For some time I've been fascinated by the codebase of a small WAT compiler written in JavaScript.

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.

Grain: WebAssembly-First Programming Language
I was also disappointed that this isn't included in the browsers given that it was designed to be very simple to parse and compile. So I tried as an exercise to build such a compiler[0] and indeed it was much easier than I expected (with a few shortcuts of course, being a POC). It is just 5kb gzipped and it compiles to binary most of the WAT code out there and also quite fast, just a few ms. That said, I think writing WAT by hand is only helpful for very small critical hot code, anything more complex and IMO you need an abstraction of some sort.
