Description

Extism serves as an open-source, universal plug-in framework designed to make any software programmable, utilizing the power of WebAssembly. Its comprehensive documentation is regularly updated to reflect the project's ongoing development. With over 15 officially supported Host SDKs, Extism can seamlessly integrate into many popular programming languages. Additionally, there are more than 7 officially supported PDKs that allow developers to create plug-ins in any language of their choice. As the set of runtime features continues to expand, Extism stands out as an exceptional plug-in solution for applications of varying types and sizes. The project includes a fully-functional canonical reference demo built with the Elixir host SDK, showcasing plug-ins developed in Rust, TypeScript, and JavaScript. There is even an implementation of a turn-based multiplayer gaming platform, complete with games that users can play and evaluate. The games are crafted as WebAssembly modules that feature a distinct set of exports, providing an engaging experience. For those interested, the source code is available on GitHub, and users can download the installer to begin their journey. The platform is entirely open-source, encouraging users to fork the code, experiment freely, and even operate their own game server. Overall, Extism not only promotes creativity but also fosters a vibrant community of developers.

Description

WebAssembly, commonly referred to as Wasm, is a binary instruction format intended for a stack-based virtual machine. It serves as a portable compilation target for various programming languages, which facilitates the deployment of applications on the web for both client-side and server-side use. The design of the Wasm stack machine emphasizes efficiency in size and load time, utilizing a binary format that promotes quick execution. By leveraging prevalent hardware capabilities, WebAssembly aims to achieve performance that is comparable to native speed across numerous platforms. WebAssembly also establishes a memory-safe and sandboxed execution environment that can be integrated into existing JavaScript virtual machines, thus expanding its versatility. When utilized within web environments, WebAssembly adheres to the browser's same-origin and permissions security protocols, ensuring a safe execution context. Additionally, WebAssembly provides a pretty-printed textual format that is beneficial for debugging, testing, and learning, allowing developers to experiment and optimize their code easily. This textual representation will also be accessible when examining the source of Wasm modules on the web, making it easier for programmers to engage directly with their code. By fostering such accessibility, WebAssembly encourages a deeper understanding of how web applications function at a fundamental level.
