WebAssembly is a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine. It is a W3C standard that ships in all major browsers and features streaming compilation and convenient interoperability with JavaScript. Most compiled languages can now generate WebAssembly binaries, enabling client-side execution of languages other than JavaScript. Additionally, many server-side runtimes and cloud services execute WebAssembly, many of which support the emerging .
