Metacode vs WebAssembly: What are the differences?

Developers describe Metacode as "The fastest way to navigate and understand code". It is an advanced code filtering tool. Filter your codebase with automatically detected keywords. Avoid clicking through files to inspect each match. Results show their surrounding code, all on one page. On the other hand, WebAssembly is detailed as "A binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine". It is an open standard that defines a portable binary code format for executable programs, and a corresponding textual assembly language, as well as interfaces for facilitating interactions between such programs and their host environment.

Metacode can be classified as a tool in the "Code Search" category, while WebAssembly is grouped under "Languages".

Some of the features offered by Metacode are:

  • Search results sorted by relevance
  • Search results with context
  • Advanced code filtering

On the other hand, WebAssembly provides the following key features:

  • Efficient and fast
  • Safe
  • Open and debuggable

WebAssembly is an open source tool with 3.49K GitHub stars and 347 GitHub forks. Here's a link to WebAssembly's open source repository on GitHub.
