Developers unfamiliar with TypeScript or JS

AssemblyScript enables TypeScript developers to write WebAssembly modules.

Provides high performance for web, server, and blockchain applications.

Strong typing, memory control, and Wasm compilation for efficiency.

Ideal for numeric-heavy tasks, games, cryptography, and smart contracts.

Bridges the gap between JS/TS ease-of-use and native performance.

Can I use AssemblyScript for blockchain?

Yes, NEAR Protocol and Substrate support AssemblyScript contracts.

Is AssemblyScript the same as TypeScript?

No, similar syntax but compiles to Wasm, with limited features.

Does AssemblyScript support classes?

Yes, with some limitations for performance.

Can I use npm libraries?

Only those compatible with AssemblyScript or JS interop.

Is AssemblyScript faster than JS?

Yes, it runs as WebAssembly with near-native performance.
