Dumb question, but is the purpose of this to run WASM code (binaries/etc) in standalone? Ie, is Nodejs to Javascript as WAVM is to WASM?

- ascheidecker 10y agoNot exactly. Node.js will probably integrate a future release of V8 that supports WebAssembly, and WAVM isn't a suitable replacement for that. WAVM is more like V8, but for WebAssembly only instead of both JavaScript and WebAssembly. The purpose is to serve as a simple VM for my programming language that compiles to WebAssembly.
