🛠️ Cppbolt – A lightweight C++ to WebAssembly compiler written in Rust
Summary
Cppbolt is a lightweight C++ to WebAssembly compiler written in Rust that compiles a subset of C++17 directly in the browser. It features a compiler payload of around 1 MB and includes a browser playground, CLI, and npm package.
Why it’s interesting
It avoids downloading a massive LLVM or Clang toolchain by offering a tiny 1 MB compiler payload written in Rust.
