⚡️ WAlt is an alternative syntax for WebAssembly text format. It’s an experiment for using JavaScript syntax to write to as ‘close to the metal’ as possible. It’s JavaScript with rules. .walt files compile directly to WebAssembly binary format.

Highlights:

Write “close to the metal” JavaScript!

No C/C++ or Rust required, just typed JavaScript.

Zero dependencies 100% written in JS.

Fast compilation, integrates into webpack.
