Wonderful WebAssembly

Wonderful WebAssembly

WebAssembly is neither "web" nor "assembly" - but 100% amazing. It is our one chance to build a fast, safe, and universal compilation target for all languages and all platforms.

Let me show you why this is cool and how to get started with WebAssembly in Go, C, and Rust.

We will also learn about up and coming features of WebAssembly (like WASI) that will make it even faster and more versatile. Let's change the way we write software forever!
