Target Audiences

This course is suitable for C++ programmers who want to get their applications browser-ready with WebAssembly, but don't know where to start.

Due to recent trends, companies are looking to design their applications live on the web. However, it’s easy to grow frustrated with JavaScript, which offers limited scope for fine- tuning performance.

If you want get ahead of your competitors by working in a language you’re comfortable with, one that is designed for speed? WebAssembly is your answer. Starting with first principles; you’ll learn is why WebAssembly is so powerful and why C++ is a natural fit. The you’ll look at compiling a program for WebAssembly using C++.

This course looking provides code examples, rather than slides so that you can really delve into the depths of WebAssembly. Allowing you to go beyond simple toy examples and learn about how real programs compile to WebAssembly.

You’ll find out that not everything works out right the first time, and it’s just as important to learn how to debug and profile your programs.

By the end of this course, you will have gained all the skills you need to get a speed advantage over pure JavaScript applications, leaving your competitors behind.
