 <h1>WebAssembly Specifications</h1>

 <p>
 To support the <em>embedding</em> of WebAssembly into different environments, its specification is split into <em>layers</em> that are specified in separate documents.
 </p>

 <h3>Core specification</h3>

 <p>Defines the semantics of WebAssembly modules and its instruction set, independent from a concrete embedding.
   The WebAssembly core is specified in a single document:</p>

   <ul>
     <li>
       <p><a href="core/multipage/index.html">Core</a>:
       defines the structure of WebAssembly modules and its representation
       in binary and text format, as well as the semantics of validation,
       instantiation, and execution.
       Alternate versions:
       <a href="core/bikeshed/index.html">W3C Editor's Draft</a>,
       <a href="core/multipage/_download/WebAssembly.pdf">PDF</a>.
       </p>
     </li>
   </ul>

 <h3>API specifications</h3>

 <p>Define <em>application programming interfaces</em> enabling the use of WebAssembly modules in concrete embedding environments.
   Currently, two APIs are specified:</p>

   <ul>
   <li><p><a href="js-api/index.html">JavaScript API</a>: defines JavaScript classes and objects for accessing WebAssembly from within JavaScript, including methods for validation, compilation, instantiation, and classes for representing and manipulating imports and exports as JavaScript objects.</p></li>

   <li><p><a href="web-api/index.html">Web API</a>: defines extensions to the JavaScript API made available specifically in web browsers, in particular, an interface for streaming compilation and instantiation from origin-bound <code>Response</code> types.</p></li>
   </ul>
