The Art of WebAssembly: Build Secure, Portable, High-Performance Applications
A a thorough, practice-based introduction to WebAssembly. Learn how to create high-performing, lightning-fast websites and applications.
WebAssembly is the fast, compact, portable technology that optimizes the performance of resource-intensive web applications and programs. The Art of WebAssembly is designed to give web developers a solid understanding of how it works, when to use it (and when not to), and how to develop and deploy WebAssembly apps.
First you’ll learn how to optimize and compile low-level code, debug and evaluate WebAssembly, and represent WebAssembly in the human-readable WebAssembly Text (WAT) format. Once you have the basics down, you’ll build a browser-based collision detection program, work with browser rendering technologies to create graphics and animations, and see how WebAssembly interacts with other web languages.

The Art of WebAssembly will help you make sense of this powerful technology to boost the performance of your web applications.

There aren't links to another sources of information (no books, no articles). Source code in book isn't equal to the source code in Github repository.

The Art of WebAssembly is an absolute essential for anyone who is diving into WebAssembly. Even if you use a tool chain like Wasm-pack, Emscripten, or AssemblyScript, it is necessary to understand WebAssembly at the core. The Art of WebAssembly provides the reader with a full and solid grasp of the whole of WebAssembly. Topics include string manipulation, optimization, bit manipulation, and more. This book really is a great resource for anyone learning wasm.
