Master Go with WebAssembly: Code Smart, Compile Small

To start using WebAssembly with Go, developers can either compile existing Go code to WebAssembly or run WebAssembly code written in other languages within Go. Compiling Go to WebAssembly can yield large binaries, so it is advisable to use TinyGo to significantly reduce binary size, optimizing for quick downloads and execution—aiming for single-digit kilobyte outputs. Understanding the interface between native Go code and WebAssembly code is essential, presenting a challenge in developing features effectively. Additionally, utilizing recommended runtimes such as WasmTime can enhance compatibility and performance across different environments.
