# Wasmer Cranelift backend

Wasmer is a standalone JIT WebAssembly runtime, aiming to be fully
compatible with Emscripten, Rust and Go. [Learn
more](https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer).

This crate represents the Cranelift backend integration for Wasmer.

## Usage

### Usage in Wasmer Standalone

If you are using the `wasmer` CLI, you can specify the backend with:

```bash
wasmer run program.wasm --backend=cranelift
```

### Usage in Wasmer Embedded

If you are using Wasmer Embedded, you can specify
the Cranelift backend to the [`compile_with` function](https://docs.rs/wasmer-runtime-core/*/wasmer_runtime_core/fn.compile_with.html):

```rust
use wasmer_clif_backend::CraneliftCompiler;

// ...
let module = wasmer_runtime_core::compile_with(&wasm_binary[..], &CraneliftCompiler::new());
```
