@sdeleuze @bashor this talk seems very interesting: https://wasmio.tech/sessions/introducing-kotlin-wasm/ I must hope you will give it at KotlinConf in Amsterdam too!

Leaving a dot here in case someone posts a recording later.

it compiles to Wasm directly without any additional layers
Wow, it doesn't even use Kotlin IR during compilation? 😐
b
It does. Additional layers here means llvm toolchain old wasm32 used.

I don't think this talk will be part of KotlinConf but I will talk about Kotlin/Wasm in mine, but with a server-side angle. https://kotlinconf.com/speakers/ce11156d-9a41-4f12-b236-3bdac0ee3a2a.

@sdeleuze I haven't really researched about Kotlin/Wasm for server-side binary compilation. Is it expected to be a more efficient format than Kotlin/Native?
n
a more efficient format than Kotlin/Native?
... or JVM bytecode (using the language interoperability support of GraalVM when needed)?
s
In general, Wasm is slightly less efficient than native code. But because it is portable and sandboxed it can be, in some ways, more efficient than native + VM/container
