The react application for both the wasmedge and node implemenation remains the same, just the server implemenation differs. Plain react app with src containing the react app implemenation, wasmedge-server/index.js containg server implemenation for wasmedge and express/index.js containing server implemenation for NodeJS.

There is a Dockerfile for creating images for both the implemenations which can be used to be uploaded on any edge function like AWS or Google Cloud etc.

Install wasmedge : https://wasmedge.org/docs/start/install#install

Install rust

Clone Wasmedge-quickjs: https://wasmedge.org/docs/develop/javascript/hello_world and copy the modules folder in the working repository

npm i

For AOT compilation for increased speed, wasmedge compile wasmedge_quickjs.wasm wasmedge_quickjs.wasm

To run the app on local using wasmedge, do start:we-server And your app will be up and running on your http://localhost:8004

To run the nodejs implemenation, do start:express-server And your app will be up and running on your http://localhost:3006
