My consultancy @mainmatter has some availability for #frontend projects starting in May.

We have deep expertise in #svelte and #emberjs as well as the intersection of frontend and #rustlang, e.g. with build tools or #wasm.

I've created my first GUI in Rust. I made a wrapper for #paperage, which is an application for saving encrypted secrets on paper.
I had to tweak paper-age a bit, but now you can use it in the browser using #WASM.
It's still a bit messy, but it should work. And of course, there's #nix support.

You can find it on GitHub here: https://github.com/renesat/paper-age-gui

P.S. Thanks for the idea, @iuvi. You can start testing

Generates random 16 bytes, transforms it to CryptoKey Object, encrypts it for RSA-key issuer

wgpu: A cross-platform, safe, pure-Rust graphics API.

｢ wgpu is a cross-platform, safe, pure-rust graphics API. It runs natively on Vulkan, Metal, D3D12, and OpenGL; and on top of WebGL2 and WebGPU on wasm.

The API is based on the WebGPU standard. It serves as the core of the WebGPU integration in Firefox, Servo, and Deno ｣

Some notes for followers: The bot has been switched to run on the #Wasm platform and is still written in Rust. It's licensed under AGPL v3 (code link in profile). You can now see alt texts on images generated by the Google Gemini AI API. Since the Google API costs money, I might switch to something cheaper or even use my own LLM. @seungjin

JAWSM—a JavaScript to #Wasm compiler:
https://itsallaboutthebit.com/jawsm/. A similar tool is Porffor: https://github.com/CanadaHonk/porffor. Neither of them are production-ready, but the idea of compiling JavaScript to #WebAssembly is very compelling.

interesting detail i just noticed buried in the flood of news from the #googlecloud next event:
their load balancer now supports plugins, which are little #wasm scripts (#rust, #golang, c++) that can do stuff to the request (logging, headers, etc)

hell yeeeaahhh k23 finally has working host functions!!!!!!!

this means we can finally execute useful #wasm including running the test suites!

hmm, now what does this remind me of:

"By standardizing APIs for #WebAssembly, #WASI provides a way to compose software written in different languages—without costly and clunky interface systems like HTTP-based microservices." (https://wasi.dev)

Oh yeah, here it is:

"The Infinite Improbability Drive was a wonderful new method of crossing interstellar distances in a mere nothingth of a second, without tedious mucking about in hyperspace"...

and:

..."The Bistromathic Drive is a wonderful new method of crossing vast interstellar distances without all the dangerous mucking about with Improbability Factors."

(and you thought I was gonna mention #Java and Jini!)

(h/t to Douglas Adams for his enduring insight into human behavior, and the #wasm / #wasi folks for doing god's work!)
