WASM, also known as Javascript Java
Do we have 3 assemblies now?
Actual assembly in mainstream use:
x86
arm
risc v
mainstream byte code:
jvm
.net (I think)
wasm
fake assembly people may write:
llvm
wasm
wat (web assembly text) is actually written is S-expressions, like lisp but without code as data.
Edit: formatting
.NET thing is called IL
The runtime is even called "common language runtime" (clr), as it is intended to support many different languages, which the jvm never was.
Languages like F# or (God forbid) VB.NET
I'm making my own, because all mainstream options are bloated for my usecase...
How many do you want?
You forgot CC :)
I hate Java because whenever people make games or performance sensitive applications with it, performance is always complete ass shit. On top of that, it seems I always have to cave in and use Windows because when I'm trying to compile a Java project, there's some obscure dependency can only be acquired and installed correctly on windows.
Try compiling Freerouting in anything other than Windows for example. It's a good fucking thing Java apps are cross platform.

Or so goes the promise 😅
Does Freerouting use libs with JNI or something? How does it not compile on linux?

Java applets from 20 years: what am I to you?
Please AppleSoft BASIC was doing bytecode before Java was a gleam in a programmers eye.
