> Back to the original goal of this post. While I enjoy writing WAT code, one aspect of the experience that could be improved is documentation. The WASM spec is much more suitable for formal verification than for actual documentation purposes; specifically, it's hard to grep and doesn't provide much in terms of examples. This is alright for a spec, but I couldn't find complementary resources that just show code samples.
I know the pain. One time, I was trying to use an experimental academic research tool. The tool accepts an input file, written in a custom language. The language is fully documented, but the only thing the documentation did was listing the syntax of each command in BNF notation. But at least it had demo code in the repo so you could read code and doc side by side to figure out how the code should look like...
