Chapter 5: Understanding Sections in WebAssembly Modules
A WebAssembly module is composed of zero or more sections. Each section has its own functionality. In the previous chapters, we saw how functions are defined inside a WebAssembly module. A function is a section inside a WebAssembly module.
In this chapter, we will explore the various other sections inside a WebAssembly module. Understanding the various sections inside a WebAssembly module will make it easier for us to identify, debug, and write efficient WebAssembly modules. We will cover the following sections in this chapter:
- Exports and imports
- Globals
- Start
- Memory
