Baby’s First Rust+WebAssembly module: Say hi to JSConf EU!

on YouTube ↗12m

" summary

A secret JSConf EU project compiles Rust+WebAssembly modules that generate light animations for a physical 3D space, running at about 35 fps. The pipeline uses linear memory (ArrayBuffer and typed array views) so WebAssembly fills pixel bytes and JavaScript serializes them for the installation. Practical tooling named is wasm-bindgen (and packaging via wasm-pack / WebAssembly Studio) to pass strings and structs; the installation is built and demonstrably works.
