Technologies

Metal Library Archive Parser

The parser uses a WebAssembly version of the MetalLibraryArchive core library, built with SwiftWasm.

wasmer-js is used as WASI polyfill. However due to wasmer/issues/2792, the parser has to run in a Web Worker.

wasm-strip from WABT and wasm-opt from binaryen are used mainly to reduce the .wasm binary size.

LLVM Disassembler

llvm-dis is used to convert the Metal bitcode into human-readable LLVM assembly language. This is also compiled to WebAssembly using this workflow.

User Interface

The UI is built with React and tailwindcss
