# Hello WASM

This is a port of the "hello-world" example for a WebAssembly target.

Differences compared to the SDL2 version include:

* Import render/canvas instead of render/sdl
* Load the gopher.png via ajax HTTP request, as the syscall to open a file from
  disk is not supported in a WASM environment.
* A call to the `canvas.AddEventListeners()` function to set up DOM event
  bindings, which enables key and mouse events to be handled in the
  canvas.Engine.
