WASM on the Blockchain. Meetup.
Let’s get together to explore the Wasm technology implementations with decentralized technologies.
WebAssembly (abbreviated Wasm) is a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine. Wasm is designed as a portable target for compilation of high-level languages like C/C++/Rust, enabling deployment on the web for client and server applications.
This is a meetup for the technologists who are interested in the evolution and application of WebAssembly in featured blockchain projects. 
Agenda:
18:00 - Doors open, networking, drinks & pizza19:00 - Fast, Deterministic, and Verifiable Computations for Blockchains with WebAssembly. Mike Voronov, Research Engineer at Fluence Labs19:30 - WASM and Rust. Building blocks. Nick Hynes, Software Engineer at Oasis Labs20:00 - Lightbeam: a linear-time optimising compiler. Jack Fransham, Core Developer at Parity Technologies20.30 - Networking

Proposal for adding module types and their text format - WebAssembly/module-types

Module / Instance Types WebAssembly CG - August 6, 2019

WebAssembly CG just decided in our meeting that 'Host Bindings' aka 'WebIDL Bindings" aka "☃ Bindings" has been renamed and shifted direction again as "Interface Types". This is for the better, but name changes can be a bit confusing. https://t.co/PUK0gRDitc

Contribute to WebAssembly/interface-types development by creating an account on GitHub.

The WebIDL bindings are generated at build time based on two things: the actual WebIDL file and a configuration file that lists some metadata about how the WebIDL should be reflected into Gecko-internal code.

Steps closer to having the OCaml GC running in wasm. I see things being "oldified" - and I can run programs for quite a while - just need to see if it's all correct. Also need to do more wiring from functions to the GC. And yes, it's slow.

World Map Generator https://t.co/hihoW0T76p a random world map generator CLI and library for Rust and WebAssembly

Magic, coming soon to WebAssembly… The same .wasm file running and using high-level types in: ✨ pure WebAssembly ✨ Python ✨ Rust ✨ Node ✨ The web with no glue code required? 🤯 See how it works ↓ https://t.co/EHxPElDCr8
