E-commerce provider Shopify has open-sourced its Ruvy project, which provides a toolchain that takes Ruby code and creates a WebAssembly module that executes that Ruby code.
Shopify believes Ruvy could be useful to the wider developer community by providing a straightforward way to build and execute simple Ruby programs in WebAssembly runtimes. Introduced October 18, and accessible from GitHub, Ruvy was created to take advantage of performance improvements from pre-initializing the Ruby virtual machine and Ruby files included by the Ruby script.
