Thanks Posibyte! Here's a sample section about how to compile jq to WebAssembly: http://levelupwasm.com/sample-jq.pdf. But note that it's from Chapter 7, so some of the HTML portions might not make complete sense without reading the previous chapters, but hope it gives you a sense of the writing style!

Also, here's the table of contents in case it helps: http://www.levelupwasm.com/toc.pdf

Thank you!
No problem, thanks for the idea! I added the TOC and sample chapter to the landing page too since it seems like a common question.
Hey, if it's about web why not provide the option of reading it on web itself? Today I saw someone selling 'offline-first' on dead-tree medium and thought to myself: Really? Does he not believe in offline-first capability of web enough that he went with the older more inefficient medium for offline reading?

Can we as developers not do better?

Above aside, congrats on publishing your book!

WebAssembly is super-interesting, I have bookmarked the page and will buy as soon as I get home.

Thanks marvindanig. Sorry I should make it more clear--the book is digital, so no dead trees here! :)
