How To Install binaryen on Fedora 36
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install binaryen on Fedora 36.
What is binaryen
Binaryen is a compiler and toolchain infrastructure library for WebAssembly, written in C++. It aims to make compiling to WebAssembly easy, fast, and effective * Easy from JavaScript. It accepts input in WebAssembly-like form but also accepts a general control flow graph for compilers that prefer that. * Fast completely parallel codegen and optimization, using all available CPU cores. Binaryen’s IR also compiles down to WebAssembly extremely easily and quickly because it is essentially a subset of WebAssembly. * Effective significantly (e.g. local coloring to coalesce local variables; dead code elimination; precomputing expressions when possible at compile time; etc.). These optimizations aim to make Binaryen powerful enough to be used as a compiler backend by itself. One specific area of focus is on WebAssembly-specific optimizations (that general-purpose compilers might not do), which you can think of as wasm minification , similar to minification for JavaScript, CSS, etc., all of which are language-specific (an example of such an optimization is block return value generation in SimplifyLocals).
We can use yum or dnf to install binaryen on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install binaryen.
Install binaryen on Fedora 36 Using dnf

sudo dnf makecache --refresh
After updating yum database, We can install binaryen using dnf by running the following command:
sudo dnf -y install binaryen
