Do you know why WebAssembly is also called Wasm?

flows-network-integration[bot] commented 1 year ago

Yes, WebAssembly is also commonly referred to as Wasm as it is a shorthand name that is easy to remember and pronounce. In fact, Wasm is the official file format for WebAssembly code. The Wasm file format is a binary format which includes instructions that can be executed directly by a computer. Using this file format, WebAssembly provides a fast and efficient way to run code on the web.

How do you pronounce Wasm?

flows-network-integration[bot] commented 1 year ago

Wasm is pronounced as "wah-zum".

juntao commented 1 year ago

I thought it is pronounced as "awesome" with the silent W?

flows-network-integration[bot] commented 1 year ago

Although there is no official pronunciation, Wasm is commonly pronounced as "wah-zum". However, some developers do pronounce it as "awesome" with a silent W, as it is an abbreviation of WebAssembly.
