Announcing GraalWasm — a WebAssembly engine in GraalVM

MEDIUM.COM

GraalVM is a high performance runtime that was launched relatively recently. Its primary goal is to improve the performance of Java virtual machine-based languages to match the performance of native languages. With GraalWasm the team have embedded a WebAssembly virtual machine within their runtime, further increasing the number of languages that can run (and enjoy lightweight interop) within their runtime. Exciting stuff!

SwiftLaTeX

SWIFTLATEX.COM

LaTeX is a popular document markup language that is used extensively in academia. SwiftLaTeX provides a WYSIWYG editor for LaTeX documents, with the rendering powered by WebAssembly. The sourcecode for can be found on GitHub, however, the wasm module is checked in as a binary, so it is not clear how it was built - which is a shame.
