WASM (web assembly)

WASM is leveraged to run (HIGHLY COMPLEX APPLICATION) on THE WEB, the WASM provides the compilation target where complex applications like HD games, Photo editor, and video editor can Run on Compilation Target.

WASM is a compilation target for programming languages, currently, it supports lots of popular languages. Web assembly provides a sandboxed execution environment.

Applications that are written in C, C+, and JAVA programing languages need a compiler that will compile the code in MACHINE CODE, then those executable’s are loaded into the CPU for binary operations.

WASM is a compilation target for C, C++, JAVA, and other high-level back-end programming languages.  WASM provides a compilation interface with a Compilation run time for applications running on C++, java, C, KOTLINE, and many more…

CODE ---> Computation ---> WASP Module.

The process can be carried out by assembly-like language:

-> Emscripten

-> WASM explorer

-> WASM Fiddle

The code is compiled in WASM binary and executed by the CPU, the File extension of WASM is: .wat, .wasm
WASM is designed by W3C, WASM paradigm is structured and stack machine, WASM is licensed under (APACHE LICENSE)

WEB ASSEMBLY is designed to be integrated with version-less, feature-tested and backward compatible web browsers.

WASM is leveraged for the compilation of code into executable machine code.  WASM binary is loaded/imported in the browser JS engine, then the JS ENGINE will DECODE | COMPUTE | TRANSLATE the WASM file into machine code for client-side execution.

OS that supports WASM : LINUX | MAC | WINDOWS | OPENING HARMONY

Set of language that can be compiled in web assembly :

  •  JS
  •  C++
  •  PYTHON
  •  RUST
  •  KOTLIN
  •  C
  •  C+
  • Assembly script

Hardware supportINTEL 64 BIT / ARM 64 BIT / ARM 32 BIT

Basically, the HIGH LEVEL CODE will be passed through the WASM COMPILATION and then it will be converted into WASM BINARY, then the binary will be imported to the browser JVM and then the machine code will be executed and the output will be rendered.

HIGH-LEVEL CODE -> WASM Compilation -> Wasm Binary -> Browser JVM -> Machine code / OS-based EXECUTION -> OUTPUT

WASM results in effective coding, and effective deployment and ensures high-quality developer experience.

WASM BINARY -> JS engine (Decode) (compiled) -> Machine Code / OS specifics -> TARGET PROCESSOR.
WASM is a revolution in the web technology stack: WASM provides high portability, higher scalability, higher performance, and low latency.

WASM WORKS WITH JS and provides NO INSTALLATION and NATIVE PERFORMANCE, WASM is an official W3C STANDARD (.wat) it is the web assembly text, it is like assembly but much more readable.

The (.wat) is translated/compiled in (.wasm) binary format that can be imported and executed on all modern browsers. The Java engine is required to run the.WASM file.

High-level code in C, C++, and java can be converted into web assembly VIA tool CALLED “onscriptem”. Web assembly is a static compiled language with strict type protocol.
