Dive into the world of WebAssembly (WASM) using Rust in this 33-minute video tutorial. Learn how to scaffold, build, and execute WebAssembly projects with Rust, including specific instructions for Apple M1 silicon. Explore the process of creating a Rust library for WASM modules, modify cargo.toml files, and write Rust WebAssembly code in VSCode. Discover techniques for optimizing release WASM, extending WebAssembly functionality in Rust, and building for Node.js execution. Compare Rust-generated WASM to hand-coded versions, and gain insights into reverse engineering WASM to WebAssembly Text Format (WAT). Perfect for developers looking to harness the power of WebAssembly with Rust.
