Webassembly

Introduction WebAssembly (Wasm) is a binary instruction format designed to be executed efficiently in web browsers. It serves as a complement to JavaScript, allowing developers to write performance-critical code in languages like Rust, C++, and C and run it in the browser. By compiling code to Wasm, it becomes platform-independent…

Unraveling the Similarities and Differences Among Three Prominent WebAssembly Runtimes: A Comprehensive Comparison of Wasmer, Wasmtime, and Wasmedge WebAssembly (Wasm) has revolutionized the way we build and execute code on the web. With its ability to run efficiently across different platforms and programming languages, WebAssembly has gained immense popularity among…

The landscape of the blockchain industry is witnessing significant and groundbreaking developments. One such pioneering innovation is the Cross-Virtual Machine (XVM) technology introduced by Astar Network. This transformative technology enables a previously unattainable level of seamless communication between Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and WebAssembly (Wasm) smart contracts. Think of it…

JavaScript engines, limits and areas for improvement Introduction Are you interested in the subject of Web Front-end runtime performance and especially the JavaScript part? You have applied most of the recommendations (lazy load, bundle chunks, tree-shaking, import on load, import on visibility, optimal algorithms, …) but you are not satisfied with…

Ok. Hear me out on this one. Rust. But for rapid full-stack web development. What…, you say? Rapid full-stack web development? For an MVP? Using a systems programming language? And Rust, nonetheless? I promise it’ll all make sense soon. Rust, as you undoubtedly already know, is a systems programming language…

Introduction C++ is a systems programming language that is used for writing Operating Systems, Kernels, Games, desktop applications, and any other place where performance is paramount. …

WebAssembly is one of those technologies that most people have heard of, but very few have actually interacted with directly. If you write code that runs in a browser often, you’ve probably already used it without even knowing. For any sort of intense tasks, it’s a great choice to speed…

Introduction Python, one of the most widely used programming languages in the world, has been continuously evolving to meet the changing needs of developers. With its simplicity, versatility, and extensive ecosystem, Python has established itself as the language of choice for a wide range of applications. In this blog post…

Viv: ProofCat, what’s up? ProofCat: Here I am, yeah. Sorry I’ve been flying, I had to go actually, I finally left my charger at security so to give you all the demonstration today I had to go out and get another one. But with that done, we can just launch…
