digitalmars.D.ldc - New Wiki page: Generating WebAssembly with LDC

The new page [1] shows

* how simple it is to generate WebAssembly from D code starting 
with just-released LDC v1.11-beta2 [2],
* how to load & invoke the generated .wasm with JavaScript, and
* how to call an external JavaScript function from D.

I'll let *you* discover the limits :) - be sure to let us know by 
reporting encountered issues. [3]

Very cool stuff!

This is a welcoming addition not only for web browser usage but 
also other potential embedding usage [1]
