Within the last month or two, certainly.
You have to be willing to edit it, start renaming variables to describe what they hold, rename them again if they get something unexpected assigned, rename functions once you have a good idea of what they're trying to do, and repeat until everything has a name.
- mdszy 7y agoSo it sounds like you're having to reverse engineer it, similar to any "binary blob". Sounds very "open" to me.
- reificator 7y agoI'm not arguing openness. Merely that minified js can be understood with some effort.
- vbezhenar 7y agoWasm is very easy to understand. I guess it lacks tools for proper reverse-engineering, to allow defining meaningful names, to use some sane language instead of default Wasm text format, but once tools will be there, it'll be much easier to understand than minified JavaScript because it's so simple.
