I saw that, and it's impressive about Java; I thought it would require a similarly large runtime to .NET. From the blog post, it sounds like they're not shipping a JVM, I guess they're just shipping as little of the JRE as they can get away with? (I'm guessing due to my unfamiliarity with the Java world)
- azakai 3y ago.NET's runtime gives it capabilities like finalizers, JITing, debugging, etc. - it's very comprehensive. J2Wasm (Java on WasmGC) is making do without those for now, and just shipping minimal support for a large/useful subset of the language.
- DylanSp 3y agoGotcha, that makes a lot of sense.
