Hi HN! This is an article about using WebAssembly to speed up a web application.<p>As I mention in the article, WebAssembly isn&#x27;t always the right tool for the job, but for our use case, it was a great fit because we were able to port an existing data analysis tool written in C to WebAssembly, and use that to replace the slow JavaScript calculations we were using initially.
