watgo - a WebAssembly Toolkit for Go

watgo is a new WebAssembly toolkit for Go that provides CLI and API tools for parsing, validating, and encoding WAT/WASM files. It offers a semantic intermediate representation (wasmir) for module analysis and manipulation, positioning itself as a pure Go alternative to existing tools like wabt and wasm-tools.

Background

WebAssembly (WASM) has become a key technology for running high-performance code in browsers and other environments, with text format (WAT) needing tooling for conversion and validation. Existing toolkits like wabt (C++) and wasm-tools (Rust) serve this purpose but lack native Go implementations.
