WASM-TOOLS(1)

✨ NAME ✨

wasm-tools — bestie, this is the WebAssembly toolbox of your dreams 💖 the usage is literally just:

wasm-tools <COMMAND>

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so here's the lineup 👑 <COMMAND> is the main character and it can be any one of these:

• print — prints the textual form of a WebAssembly binary. binary → text, slay 💖
• smith — a WebAssembly test case generator 🧚 it just makes test cases for you, no cap

• objdump — dumps information about sections in a WebAssembly file. sections said 👀
• strip — removes custom sections from an input WebAssembly file ✂️

• component — WebAssembly wit-based component tooling 🧩
• metadata — manipulate metadata (module name, producers) to a WebAssembly file 📝
• wit-smith — a WIT test case generator ⭐
• addr2line — translates a WebAssembly address to a filename and line number using DWARF debugging information 📍 like a little GPS for your stack trace
• completion — generate shell completion scripts for this CLI 🌟
• json-from-wast — converts a *.wast WebAssembly spec test into a *.json file and *.wasm files 💜
• wast — a subcommand to test *.wast files short of executing WebAssembly code 🍓
• help — prints this message or the help of the given subcommand(s). the classic 🎀

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

• -h, --help — prints help 💖 when you're lost, this is your bestie
