w4-init ✨

This is a command line tool that acts as a companion to my w4 module for Zig ⚡

w4-init is used to create a directory containing code that allows you to promptly get started coding on a cart for the lovely little fantasy console WASM-4.

The Zig build .target is declared as .{ .cpu_arch = .wasm32, .os_tag = .wasi } and .optimize is set to .ReleaseSmall

Important

No need to specify -Doptimize=ReleaseSmall

Installation

Requires you to have Go installed.

go install github.com/peterhellberg/w4-init@latest

Usage

Requires you to have an up to date (nightly) version of Zig installed.

(As well as npx, which is part of Node.js these days)

w4-init mycart
cd mycart
zig build run

Note

There is also a zig build --watch command that can be used to trigger automatic reload of the WASM-4 cart running in the browser when a file is changed.
