BrooklynJS Talk Submission
Talk Title:
ezeerust: Assembly in WebAssembly in the browser
Talk Description:
Zeerust is an emulator for the Z80 I wrote in Rust while at Recurse center. After I finished it, I realised that probably nobody was ever going to run it again, some random rust binary. But if I made it a webapp, maybe I could get people to play with it!
Rust can compile to WebAssembly, so I set out to make a frontend for it. I found a project called yew, which let me write a React-style frontend entirely in Rust, making communication with my emulator easy! The finished emulator lives at zeerust.stillinbeta.com.
In this talk, I'll discuss the trials of doing pure-web assembly development, how I went about deploying it, and what the development loop likes with in Rust.
