A Workshop for Learning Rust and WebAssembly

Rust WebAssembly Workshop

This is a workshop for learning about the usage and inner workings of Rust WebAssembly with a focus on the wasm-bindgen based toolchain.

Suggested Prerequisites

This workshop assumes that you are familiar with Rust to an advanced beginner or intermediate level. If you are not, I suggest first taking a look at the Rust Programming Language Book.

You should also have a passing familiarity with JavaScript.

Getting Started

Make sure that you have the lastest version of Rust installed as well as wasm-pack.

Once you have this, navigate to the getting-started folder.

Contents

The workshop is composed of three parts:

• Getting Start: This covers the very basics of Rust and WebAssembly using wasm-bindgen and wasm-pack. Start here if you know nothing about Rust and WebAssembly tooling or need a quick refresher.
• Going Further: This section takes your learning even further by having you take an existing Rust library and using it from JavaScript.
• Putting It All Together: This section has you expand a Rust library to create the user interface in the browser through Rust and then start it all up by calling it from JavaScript.
