Is anyone using Go’s support for compiling to WebAssembly? I know it was added experimentally a few versions ago - is it still being worked on? Is it production-ready? There’s no mention of it in these release notes.
TinyGo is far better, but only supports a subset of Go's stdlib.
I'm playing with TinyGo, and using GPRC communication with the outer engine as a poor substitute for WASM interface types.
https://github.com/fizx/goingo if you want to read the ugly prototype!
goingo is a great idea... excited for it!
I’ve been using Go in the frontend in many (most?) of my personal projects since the early days of GopherJS, and by now I’ve compiling most of that frontend code to Wasm. I’m very happy with the experience and results, and my top wishlist item would be improvements to the binary size for faster first-time loads.
If you haven’t already seen it, https://golang.org/wiki/WebAssembly has lots of good info.
