Awesome WASM languages:

.NET WebAssembly: Create, read, modify, write and execute WebAssembly (WASM) files from .NET-based applications.

Wasm Debugger: Direct, source-level WebAssembly debugger

An introduction to WebAssembly components

WebAssembly friendly programming with C/C++ - Ending, Chai Shushan, Yushih (HTML, examples)
