Rust to WASM random number generator

Prerequisites

Get a working rust toolchain. The easiest way is to use rustup and run

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Also need to install wasm-pack

curl https://rustwasm.github.io/wasm-pack/installer/init.sh -sSf | sh

You'll also need a working copy of node/npm (we're using 16.x/8.x).

Build the project

Run

wasm-pack build

This may take a long time the first time, and will require internet access as it downloads crates.

This will produce a bunch of things, among them pkg which holds the js package with typescript definitions, wrapper javascript and the wasm itself.

Bring up the web testing

Following from the setup in the rustwasm book there's a small example project that uses this package in www; from within that directory run:

npm install
npm run start

then navigate to https://localhost:8080
