This project is a runtime for WebAssembly modules, suitable for use as a loader for user apps in firmwares running on microcontrollers like ESP32.
It is being developed within this daily coding challenge. For me, this project serves as an opportunity to learn more about WebAssembly, delve deeper into low level programming, and... use more Rust :)
Hopefully, something useful will come out of this project.
- parser of WebAssembly binary representation;
- basic subset of Wasm (support for SIMD, threads and other more advanced features is not planned)
- bytecode interpreter;
- native API to call from inside the virtual machine;
- optional: JIT/AOT compilation using copy-and-patch method1.
- low memory footprint;
- reasonable performance.
- introduce continuous integration (via Github Actions) on real hardware to ensure proper performance on target platforms;
- experiment with process scheduling.
