What I’m doing now
Updated on June 23, 2025 from Gauting, Germany.
After a few weeks of work-related travel (Prague, Barcelona) and a week of vacation, I’m ready to get back to my regular schedule.
- Last cycle, I worked on adding WebAssembly support to Ohm. I had hoped to have the work complete by now, but — as is often the case — it turned out to be harder than I thought! I did make a lot of progress, and finished the MVP. Although performance wasn’t the main motivation for this work, it’s turning out to be a nice side effect. Initial results on real-world grammars (e.g. ES5) are showing about 10x faster parse times!
- The next steps for this project are still unclear. There is probably at least 8-10 more weeks of work required to make it production-ready. I’m currently looking for companies/organizations to fund this work; if I can find funding, this will be my main focus for the next couple of months. Otherwise, I’ll probably continue to whittle away at it, but my main focus will be elsewhere. If you or your company can help fund this project, please get in touch!
Writing
I’m continuing to work towards my writing goal: publish a TIL every week and a proper blog post every month. I’ve mostly been keeping up with the TILs, but not with the blogging.
