Why watch

David Beazley live-codes a stack machine in Python and transforms it into a WebAssembly interpreter during this PyCon India 2019 keynote. He demonstrates the interpreter by running a game written in Rust, exploring the intersection of Python and WebAssembly at the language implementation level. Targeted at experienced developers interested in interpreter construction, virtual machines, and the mechanics of executing WASM bytecode.
