Angular, Rust & WebAssembly - NgRustWasm

A simple project showing how WebAssembly(based on RUST) could be used in Angular 6 in form of services.

Prerequisites

You need to download and install node.js (preferably v8.11), Rust (nightly build).

Follow steps in the link to install rustup https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rustup.rs/#installation

Install the latest nightly: rustup toolchain install nightly

If you already installed nightly before, make sure it is up to date: rustup update

Make your nightly as default for now: rustup defult nightly

Install the required target: rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown --toolchain nightly

Also, you need to install wasm-gc. to install wasm-gc, run cargo install --git https://github.com/alexcrichton/wasm-gc

Build

To build the demo, run the following in the root folder:

npm install
npm build-wasm        // compiles rust project and builds webassembly(wasm) and copies wasm file to assets folder
npm build             // builds angular application
npm start

Then you can open your browser at http://localhost:4200 to see the demo.
