+# `wasm32v1-none`
+
+**Tier: 2**
+
+The `wasm32v1-none` target is a WebAssembly compilation target that:
+
+- Imports nothing from its host environment
+- Enables no proposals / features past the [W3C WebAssembly Core 1.0 spec]
+
+[W3C WebAssembly Core 1.0 spec]: https://www.w3.org/TR/wasm-core-1/
+
+The target is very similar to [`wasm32-unknown-unknown`](./wasm32-unknown-unknown.md) and similarly uses LLVM's `wasm32-unknown-unknown` backend target. It contains only three minor differences:
+
+* Setting the `target-cpu` to `mvp` rather than the default `generic`. Requesting `mvp` disables _all_ WebAssembly proposals / LLVM target feature flags.
+* Enabling the [Import/Export of Mutable Globals] proposal (i.e. the `+mutable-globals` LLVM target feature flag)
+* Not compiling the `std` library at all, rather than compiling it with stubs.

+- Graydon Hoare, https://github.com/graydon
+
+## Requirements
+
+This target is cross-compiled. It does not support `std`, only `core` and `alloc`. Since it imports nothing from its environment, any `std` parts that use OS facilities would be stubbed out with functions-that-fail anyways, and the experience of working with the stub `std` in the `wasm32-unknown-unknown` target was deemed not something worth repeating here.
+
+Everything else about this target's requirements, building, usage and testing is the same as what's described in the [`wasm32-unknown-unknown` document](./wasm32-unknown-unknown.md), just using the target string `wasm32v1-none` in place of `wasm32-unknown-unknown`.
+
+## Conditionally compiling code
+
+It's recommended to conditionally compile code for this target with:
+
+```text
+#[cfg(all(target_family = "wasm", target_os = "none"))]
+```
+
+Note that there is no way to tell via `#[cfg]` whether code will be running on
+the web or not.
+
+## Enabled WebAssembly features
+
+As noted above, _no WebAssembly proposals past 1.0_ are enabled on this target by default. Indeed, the entire point of this target is to have a way to compile for a stable "no post-1.0 proposals" subset of WebAssembly _on stable Rust_.
+
+The [W3C WebAssembly Core 1.0 spec] was adopted as a W3C recommendation in December 2019, and includes exactly one "post-MVP" proposal: the [Import/Export of Mutable Globals] proposal.
+
+All subsequent proposals are _disabled_ on this target by default, though they can be individually enabled by passing LLVM target-feature flags.
+
+For reference sake, the set of proposals that LLVM supports at the time of writing, that this target _does not enable by default_, are listed here along with their LLVM target-feature flags:
+
+* Post-1.0 proposals (integrated into the WebAssembly core 2.0 spec):
+    * [Bulk memory] - `+bulk-memory`
+    * [Sign-extending operations] - `+sign-ext`
+    * [Non-trapping fp-to-int operations] - `+nontrapping-fptoint`
+    * [Multi-value] - `+multivalue`
+    * [Reference Types] - `+reference-types`
+    * [Fixed-width SIMD] - `+simd128`
+* Post-2.0 proposals:
+    * [Threads] (supported by atomics) - `+atomics`
+    * [Exception handling]  - `+exception-handling`
+    * [Extended Constant Expressions]  - `+extended-const`
+    * [Half Precision]  - `+half-precision`
+    * [Multiple memories]- `+multimemory`
+    * [Relaxed SIMD] - `+relaxed-simd`
+    * [Tail call] - `+tail-call`

+
+## Rationale relative to wasm32-unknown-unknown
+
+As noted in the [`wasm32-unknown-unknown` document](./wasm32-unknown-unknown.md), it is possible to compile with `--target wasm32-unknown-unknown` and disable all WebAssembly proposals "by hand", by passing `-Ctarget-cpu=mvp`. Furthermore one can enable proposals one by one by passing LLVM target feature flags, such as `-Ctarget-feature=+mutable-globals`.
+
+Is it therefore reasonable to wonder what the difference is between building with this:
+
+```sh
+$ rustc --target wasm32-unknown-unknown -Ctarget-cpu=mvp -Ctarget-feature=+mutable-globals
+```
+
+and building with this:
+
+```sh
+$ rustc --target wasm32v1-none
+```
+
+The difference is in how the `core` and `alloc` crates are compiled for distribution with the toolchain, and whether it works on _stable_ Rust toolchains or requires _nightly_ ones. Again referring back to the [`wasm32-unknown-unknown` document](./wasm32-unknown-unknown.md), note that to disable all post-MVP proposals on that target one _actually_ has to compile with this:
+
+```sh
+$ export RUSTFLAGS="-Ctarget-cpu=mvp -Ctarget-feature=+mutable-globals"
+$ cargo +nightly build -Zbuild-std=panic_abort,std --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
+```
+
+Which not only rebuilds `std`, `core` and `alloc` (which is somewhat costly and annoying) but more importantly requires the use of nightly Rust toolchains (for the `-Zbuild-std` flag). This is very undesirable for the target audience, which consists of people targeting WebAssembly implementations that prioritize stability, simplicity and/or security over feature support.
+
+This `wasm32v1-none` target exists as an alternative option that works on stable Rust toolchains, without rebuilding the stdlib.
