🚀 Experimental Wasm library made using [AssemblyScript](https://github.com/AssemblyScript) to convert strict

[TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) into fast and optimized [Web Assembly](https://webassembly.org/) binaries.

## Examples

`levenshtein-wasm` only exports a function, named `levenshtein`, which takes two strings and returns its

[Levenshtein distance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance):

```javascript

const { levenshtein } = require('levenshtein-wasm');

// const levenshtein = require('levenshtein-wasm').levenshtein;

// import { levenshtein } from 'levenshtein-wasm';

console.log(levenshtein('cat', 'cow'));

// -> 2

```
