Hey friends, it's been a while!

It's time for another summer sale — starting today, you can get the book for 50% off. Just head on over to wasmgroundup.com, no discount code required.

So, if you've been meaning to pick it up (or you know someone who has), what better time than now?

I usually include a destkop/JVM client in Compose Multiplatform projects I work on as I think faster to iterate on. Just realised that also very useful to have a Kotlin/Wasm based client as Claude is able to drive it faster using following plugin

Use Claude Code with Chrome - Claude Code Docs
Connect Claude Code to your Chrome browser to test web apps, debug with console logs, automate form filling, and extract data from web pages.

Andrea Peruffo explains in this new @foojay.io #podcast, what #WebAssembly #WASM is, and how it works. Did you know it's already used in a lot of #Java libraries? His #Endive project makes it easy to use WASM in Java projects.
