wasm
The Superset of WASI.
WASIX is the long term stabilization and support of the existing WASI ABI plus additional non-invasive syscall extensions that complete the missing gaps sufficiently enough to enable real, practical and useful applications to be compiled and used now. It aims to speed up the ecosystem around the WASI so that the Wasm’ification of code bases around the world can really start today!

WebAssembly (abbreviated Wasm) is a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine. Wasm is designed as a portable compilation target for programming languages, enabling deployment on the web for client and server applications.
WebAssembly SQLite with support for browser storage extensions.
This is a WebAssembly build of SQLite with support for writing SQLite virtual filesystems completely in Javascript. This allows alternative browser storage options such as IndexedDB and Origin Private File System. Applications can opt to use either a synchronous or asynchronous (using Asyncify or JSPI) SQLite library build (an asynchronous build is required for asynchronous extensions).

libvips for the browser and Node.js, compiled to WebAssembly with Emscripten.
libvips is a demand-driven, horizontally threaded image processing library. Compared to similar libraries, libvips runs quickly and uses little memory.
Programs that use wasm-vips don't manipulate images directly, instead they create pipelines of image processing operations building on a source image. When the end of the pipe is connected to a destination, the whole pipeline executes at once, streaming the image in parallel from source to destination a section at a time. Because wasm-vips is parallel, it's quick, and because it doesn't need to keep entire images in memory, it's light.
An immediate mode GUI written in Rust.
egui is an immediate mode GUI library written in Rust. egui runs both on the web and natively on 🐧. On the web it is compiled to WebAssembly and rendered with WebGL. Everything you see is rendered as textured triangles. There is no DOM, HTML, JS or CSS. Just Rust.

Sync for modern apps. The standard sync layer for local-first apps. Build reactive, realtime, local-first apps directly on Postgres.
ElectricSQL is a local-first software platform that makes it easy to develop high-quality, modern apps with instant reactivity, realtime multi-user collaboration and conflict-free offline support.
Local-first is a new development paradigm where your app code talks directly to an embedded local database and data syncs in the background via active-active database replication. Because the app code talks directly to a local database, apps feel instant. Because data syncs in the background via active-active replication it naturally supports multi-user collaboration and conflict-free offline.
