Designing a WebAssembly toolchain for Ada/SPARK
WebAssembly (Wasm) is a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine, which was designed as a portable compilation target for programming languages. Wasm can be executed in browsers, native runtimes and embedded contexts.The goal of my six-month internship at AdaCore was to draft a design for a toolchain that would support an Ada/SPARK workflow to WebAssembly. In this blog post the drafted design is introduced and discussed.
