Create initial WASM code generation modules: **Wasm Module (lib/wasm.ml):** - Complete WASM IR definitions - Value types: I32, I64, F32, F64 - All WASM instructions (control flow, memory, arithmetic) - Module structure (types, functions, exports, imports) - Based on WebAssembly 1.0 specification **Codegen Module (lib/codegen.ml):** - Code generation context with locals tracking - Expression code generation: * Literals (int, bool, float, char) * Variables (local get/set) * Binary operations (arithmetic, comparison, logical) * Unary operations (negation, logical not) * If expressions with then/else branches * Let bindings (simple variable patterns) * Blocks and return statements - Statement code generation: * Let statements * Expression statements * While loops (using WASM block/loop/br) - Function code generation (basic structure) - Top-level declaration handling **Limitations (TODOs):** - No WASM binary encoder yet (just IR) - No function calls or indirect calls - No heap allocation or complex data structures - No pattern matching translation - No effect handlers in codegen - Simplified type mapping (everything is I32) **Files Added:** - lib/wasm.ml: WASM intermediate representation - lib/codegen.ml: Code generator **Files Modified:** - lib/dune: Add wasm and codegen modules - STATE.scm: Update progress **Status:** - Priority #1 (Interpreter): ✓ Complete - Priority #2 (WASM Codegen): In progress (infrastructure done) - Priority #3 (Standard Library): Not started - Priority #4 (Module System): Not started Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
