An upcoming release of the Ruby language improves capabilities for WebAssembly, the highly touted binary format intended to improve web application performance.
Unveiled April 3, Ruby 3.2.0 Preview 1 offers an initial port of WASI-based (WebAssembly System Interface) WebAssembly support. This enables a CRuby binary to execute in web browsers, serverless edge environments, and other WASI embedders. WASI support encourages developers to utilize CRuby in a WebAssembly environment. An example use case is TryRuby playground’s CRuby support.
