The C/C++ encoder and transcoder libraries can be compiled to native code or WebAssembly (web or WASI), and all encoder/transcoder features can be accessed from JavaScript via a C++ wrapper library which optionally supports [WASM multithreading](https://web.dev/articles/webassembly-threads) for fast encoding in the browser. [WASM WASI](https://wasi.dev/) builds, for the command line tool and the encoder/transcoder as a WASI module using a pure C API, are also supported.

Pixel Shader Deblocking Sample
------------------------------
The [shader_deblocking sample](https://github.com/BinomialLLC/basis_universal/blob/master/shader_deblocking/README.md) in the repo demonstrates how to use a simple pixel shader to deblock sampled textures of any block size between 4x4-12x12, greatly reducing block artifacts. The sample shader is compatible with mipmapping and bilinear or trilinear filtering. Ultimately, shader deblocking enables the usage of larger ASTC block sizes, reducing bitrate and increasing transcoding speeds. Deblocking is a standard feature of modern image and video codecs, and there's no reason why it can't be used while sampling (or transcoding) GPU textures.
