frontend.wasm

frontend.wasm is a library that takes an AST defined by IR::IR and writes embind code. The idea is to be able to use the C++ code that corresponds to the AST from the web via the generated embind.

frontend.wasm is a part of the Tolc project and is used to support creating WebAssembly bindings.
