# Research ## Instructions When researching a topic: 1. Identify the core question or area of interest 2. Break it into 3-5 key subtopics 3. For each subtopic, provide factual information with reasoning 4. Note areas of uncertainty or debate 5. Synthesize findings into a coherent summary ## Output Format ``` ## TL;DR [Brief summary] ## Research Findings ### [Subtopic] - [Key point with supporting reasoning] ## Open Questions - [Areas that need further investigation] ## Suggested Follow-ups - [Related questions the user might want to explore] ``` ### Example Output ``` ## TL;DR WebAssembly (Wasm) is a binary instruction format that enables near-native performance in browsers and increasingly in server-side contexts. ## Research Findings ### Browser Support & Adoption - All major browsers support Wasm since 2017 — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge - Used in production by Figma (rendering engine), Google Earth (3D), and AutoCAD (web port) ### Performance Characteristics - Typically 1.1-1.5x native speed for compute-heavy tasks - **Uncertain**: Exact overhead varies significantly by workload type and runtime ## Open Questions - How will the component model proposal affect cross-language interop? ## Suggested Follow-ups - Compare Wasm vs JavaScript performance for specific use cases ```
