Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scheme→Wasm compilation: Tail call optimization and continuations.
  • Interoperability: JavaScript interop for host environments.
  • Runtime usage: Load and execute Wasm modules in JavaScript.

Quick Start

Compile a Scheme file to WebAssembly and run it in JavaScript.

FAQPage Schema
How do I compile Scheme code to WebAssembly?

Compile Scheme to WebAssembly using this Scheme→Wasm compiler, which converts your Scheme source files into standalone Wasm modules executable in web environments, Node.js, and embedded runtimes with full tail call optimization and first-class continuations support.

Does WebAssembly support tail call optimization and continuations?

This compiler implements full tail call optimization and first-class continuations in WebAssembly, enabling efficient Scheme patterns that rely on tail recursion and complex control flow to execute correctly in Wasm modules.

Can I use Scheme code with JavaScript interop in WebAssembly?

Yes, the compiler supports JavaScript interoperability, allowing compiled Wasm modules to call and be called from JavaScript, enabling seamless integration of Scheme logic into JavaScript-based applications.

What's the best way to run compiled Scheme as standalone WebAssembly modules?

Generate standalone WebAssembly modules from your Scheme programs, then load and execute them directly in JavaScript environments—no additional runtime wrapper needed beyond standard Wasm module instantiation.

Can I compile Scheme to WebAssembly for web browsers and Node.js?

This compiler targets multiple runtimes: web browsers, Node.js, and embedded environments all execute the same compiled Wasm output, eliminating the need for platform-specific Scheme builds.

What Scheme features are preserved when compiling to WebAssembly?

The compiler preserves core Scheme semantics including tail call optimization and first-class continuations during compilation to Wasm, maintaining the language's control flow guarantees in the compiled output.
