wasm2wat: Convert a file to the text format and display it to the console.
$ wasm2wat ${file-wasm}
try on your machine

The command "wasm2wat" is used to convert a WebAssembly binary file (".wasm" file) to its human-readable text format called WebAssembly Text (".wat" file).

Here, "${file-wasm}" is a placeholder representing the name or path of the input WebAssembly binary file that you want to convert. You need to replace "${file-wasm}" with the actual name or path of the ".wasm" file you want to convert.

For example, if you have a WebAssembly binary file named "example.wasm" in the current directory, you would run the command as:

wasm2wat example.wasm

This will generate a corresponding WebAssembly Text file named "example.wat" containing the text representation of the binary file's contents.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
