Topic: Java bytecode to Wasm

view this post on Zulip Joel Dice (Aug 01 2022 at 17:09):

Has anyone here experimented with translating Java bytecode to Wasm for use in non-browser contexts (e.g. WASI)?

I've done a bit of research and experimentation on this myself recently, culminating in a simple proof-of-concept using TeaVM. I'm planning to expand that into something that supports some or all of WASI, but I thought I'd ask here in case others are working on something similar (or know of someone who is). And if you're not yet working on such a thing but would like to help, let me know!

I would love to see java compile to Wasm. I recommend checking in with GraalVM for Wasm and WASI collaborators.

For those who are interested, here's what I've done so far: https://github.com/konsoletyper/teavm/pull/610
