Topic: The state of documentation

Hello guys! I appreciate your work! I have a few questions. First, about the documentation of wasmtime. Is there an update planned for the docs of the runtime? Second, rust (and possibly other) examples using interface types are broken, how long do you think it would take to make wasm-bindgen and wasmtimeto work together or is it still too experimental to tell? Lastly, is there a possibility one could help the project in any way?

Hi @daubaris . Regarding the docs, do you mean Wasmtime API docs (i.e. https://docs.rs/wasmtime/0.12.0/wasmtime/) or other documentation? Regarding interface types, Wasmtime implemented an experimental (and very early) interface types proposal and hasn't yet made an update to a more recent version of the proposal. As a result, the interface types examples/demos are broken currently for Wasmtime. For some context, see the "What to do about our Interface Types support" topic in the Wasmtime zulip stream.

Ah ha! I've figured out how to link to the topic: https://bytecodealliance.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/217126-wasmtime/topic/What.20do.20to.20about.20our.20Interface.20Types.20support.3F/near/189234589

Yeah, I had in mind some of the documentation missing in the github pages (e.g., https://bytecodealliance.github.io/wasmtime/stability.html).

@daubaris we don't currently have a concrete plan to fill out those docs, it's largely been volunteer effort so far, but we're always happy to accept contributions!

The contributing docs should be pretty filled out for jumping into wasmtime too
