"WAjic" is a simplified alternative to #Emscripten which, like Emscripten, generates #wasm from C with LLVM 8.0.0 or greater with clang -target wasm32 foo.c -o foo.wasm and a lot of other options. Also apparently #Node 8 and newer support wasm. WAjic is written in Node. The main missing feature seems to be setjmp.
There’s an even shorter #tutorial for node-ffi on its homepage. require('ffi').Library('libm', {'ceil': ['double', ['double']]}).ceil(1.5) #FFI #Node
another #tutorial for using node-ffi, an #FFI for #Node. TooTallNate, who wrote a version of ctypes for Node, is working on this now.
