Notes on Writing Wasm

Been working on making #WebAssembly work with #async #JavaScript import functions. I was stuck for a while before I realized that I need to do it entirely through callbacks. Now I can run async #Rust code using JavaScript's event loop. It's wonky, but it gets the job done alright.

I know I could have leaned on #WasmBindgen, but I need a really defined interface that can be supported from multiple languages, including C and C++, so I did it by hand.
