WASM Component Model & Future APIs
Explore the WebAssembly Component Model for modularity and upcoming proposals like WASM GC and SIMD.
WASM Component Model Intro
Welcome to exploring the future of WebAssembly! Today, we'll dive into exciting proposals that will make WASM even more powerful.
First up is the WebAssembly Component Model. It's designed to make WASM modules truly modular, reusable, and interoperable, regardless of the source language.
Why Components Are Needed
Currently, passing complex data (like strings or objects) between JavaScript and WASM often requires manual serialization and memory management.
This can be tricky and error-prone, especially when modules are written in different languages that need to communicate effectively.
