About
WebAssembly (Wasm) is a portable binary instruction format that runs in modern web browsers with near-native performance, enabling frontend coding in languages that were not traditionally used for web interfaces, such as 
C/C++, 
C#, and 
Rust.
It is designed as a low-level compilation target with a compact binary format, fast execution, memory-safe sandboxing, and a stack-based virtual machine. It also integrates with 
JavaScript to access Web APIs and share memory efficiently.
YAML ("YAML Ain't Markup Language") is a human-readable data serialization language designed for representing structured data and exchanging it between systems and programming languages.
It uses indentation-based syntax with minimal structural characters, represents data using three core primitives such as mappings, sequences, and scalars, and includes features such as anchors and aliases for referencing data, along with a simple typing system for numbers, strings, and booleans.
