A fundamental webassambly c++ starter project using gulp to make your day a bit easier.
- Full setup for building your wasm module
- Large c++ library support using response file workaround
- Easy to expand build script using gulp
- Simple project hierarchy
- Development build pipeline
Install the emscripten sdk and all its dependecies on your machine look here, tested on windows and debian with no problems.
Clone the starter and install required dependencies. (you've probably done this before)
git clone https://github.com/florisdh/wasm-cpp-starter.git AWESOME-PROJECT
cd AWESOME-PROJECT
npm i
Running the build task will collect all .cpp source files in the src folder and build a webassambly module from them.
npm run build
You can browse the resulting build.wasm file in the build directory.
During the development you should run the serve task to make testing a bit easier. This will run the emscripten html build, which will build your sources and setup a basic web app in the build folder. It will also automatically open your default browser with the test app where you can instantly see the output.
npm run serve
There is also a watcher running on the src folder, so every time a source file is changed, it will re-build the wasm file.
Made this starter project out of lack (in my pov) for a good starter in webassambly with c++. Please let me know if you're using it or have some feedback. :)
- Optimise wasm build size using params
- Add source map support
- Add dependency status to readme
