Wa (凹) is a general-purpose, statically typed programming language designed for WebAssembly, with a fully self-developed compiler and runtime that does not depend on LLVM. It is implemented in Go, supports bilingual (Chinese/English) syntax, and targets web applications, WASM4 games, and embedded scenarios.
Use cases
- compile a programming language to webassembly
- write browser games with wasm4
- learn a statically typed language with chinese keywords
- build high-performance web apps without llvm toolchain
- try a language in an online playground
- write webassembly modules without c or rust
When to choose
- you want a simple, self-contained wasm toolchain independent of llvm
- you prefer bilingual chinese/english source code
- you are experimenting with wasm4 retro game development
When to avoid
- you need a production-mature language with a large ecosystem
- you require non-wasm native targets with broad platform support
- agpl-v3 licensing of the compiler is incompatible with your project
