## What it is
A four-part tutorial series exploring WebAssembly from scratch, from hand-written WAT FizzBuzz to compiling Rust and porting 1997 DooM to the browser. It includes live demos deployed via GitHub Pages.

## Use cases
- learn webassembly from scratch
- understand how wasm works without tooling
- compile rust to webassembly
- port a c game like doom to the browser
- hand-write wat modules
- find a wasm tutorial for backend developers

## When to choose
- you want a bottom-up, low-magic introduction to WebAssembly
- you learn best by building examples like FizzBuzz and DooM yourself
- you want a working end-to-end example of Rust or C++ compiled to wasm in the browser

## When to avoid
- you need a production wasm toolchain or framework
- you want a maintained library rather than a tutorial
- you need licensing clarity for reuse, since no license is specified

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: wasm, compiler, developer-tools
- domain: tutorials, web-development, programming-languages
- platform: browser, wasm
- tags: webassembly, tutorial, doom, wat, rust-to-wasm, from-scratch, game-development, web-server
