Asterius

Asterius is a Haskell-to-WebAssembly (Wasm) compiler backend that allows Haskell programs to compile into WebAssembly modules. The goal is to support Haskell applications on the Web (or Wasm runtime environments) with better performance, tighter integration with Wasm runtimes, and more modern tooling compared to older JS-targeted approaches. It is maintained by Tweag.

Features

Compilation from Haskell to WebAssembly (Wasm)
Support for Haskell runtime abstractions in Wasm (e.g. memory, concurrency, IO)
Integration with GHC and Haskell toolchains
Generation of efficient WebAssembly modules
Support for combining Haskell modules with Wasm host environments
Tooling for deploy / linking / embedding of Wasm modules
