WebAssembly is a binary instruction format that's designed to be a low-level virtual machine that runs code at near-native speed. It was developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and it's the future of web development for sure. It enables high-performance applications to run on web browsers, which can provide a faster and smoother user experience. WebAssembly extends the web by enabling previously unrunnable applications like video games, CAD, and complex simulations to run on a web browser at near-native speed. #WebAssembly #FutureOfWebDevelopment
