Rick Battagline is introducing all concepts from the very beginning, with illustrations and examples, so that you can learn progressively—even without any prior knowledge in low level programming. It's a pleasure to read and learn as you go through the chapters. It will be useful for either trying WebAssembly in your app or to get a good understanding before using languages compiling to WebAssembly.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e—Florian Rival, The Changelog, creator of the app GDevelop and the game Lil BUB\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eRick Battagline\u003c\/b\u003e is a game developer and author of \u003ci\u003eHands-On Game Development with WebAssembly\u003c\/i\u003e (Packt Publishing, 2019).
