Exploring the WebAssembly Text Format

Machines understand a bunch of 1s and 0s. We optimize the binary to make it run faster and more efficiently. The more concise and optimal the instructions, the more efficient and performant the machine will be. But for people, it’s difficult to contextually analyze and understand a huge blob of 1s and 0s. That’s the very reason why we started abstracting and creating high-level programming languages.
