WebAssembly (abbreviated Wasm, a contraction of “WebAssembly”, not an acronym, hence not using all-caps) is a safe, portable, low-level code format designed for efficient execution and compact representation. An assembly is a group of people gathered together in one place for a common purpose. In this show with the whimsical name WasmAssembly (get it?), Thomas Steiner, Developer Relations Engineer at Google, chats with experts from the community about the past, present, and future developments happening in the world of WebAssembly.
