#webasm — Public Fediverse posts

Best programming language and bytecode specifications. (By their rigidness)

1. SML (just go read it, it is mathematical article)
2. Webassembly (for example: https://webassembly.github.io/spec/core/valid/instructions.html#xref-syntax-instructions-syntax-instr-control-mathsf-if-xref-syntax-instructions-syntax-blocktype-mathit-blocktype-xref-syntax-instructions-syntax-instr-mathit-instr-1-ast-xref-syntax-instructions-syntax-instr-control-mathsf-else-xref-syntax-instructions-syntax-instr-mathit-instr-2-ast-xref-syntax-instructions-syntax-instr-control-mathsf-end )
3. Ecmascript (see my summary: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3355#issuecomment-1385713351 )

"WinterJS 1.0 è finalmente arrivato.

WinterJS è un runtime Javascript incredibilmente veloce, compatibile con WinterCG e scritto in Rust, che utilizza il motore SpiderMonkey per eseguire JavaScript e Tokio per gestire le richieste HTTP e il ciclo di eventi JS. Il runtime WinterJS può anche essere compilato in WebAssembly e come tale è il primo runtime[...]"

@massa @KC1PYT @Perl @BrendanEich That’s well before #WebASM. Was it using #ActiveState’s browser #Perl scripting that only worked in #Microsoft #InternetExplorer?

@mjgardner @Perl @BrendanEich There was a Mozilla project back in the day to migrate PHP, Python, and Perl to the browser at one point. It's a shame it didn't happen!

#Rakulang has *some* capability to do this with #WebASM but you don't get access to the DOM I don't think it's a maintained part of the Raku codebase. Also sad.

@juergen_hubert @j_bertolotti rereading this, the phrase "portable assets" resonated with another hot topic... #webasm. Wouldn't it be effing incredible for game assets to come with standard, portable code objects defining their behaviors? If any game system were formalized enough to enable the concept, #gurps would be.

In a world where a typical web application is composed of kilobytes of unreadable #JavaScript, I'd rather have #WebAsm, a WebAsm VM is also much easier to audit.

Generally, though, I'd like to see some kind of code signing and reproducible builds for open source web apps that do this.
