I built a client-side cache in Rust and compiled it to WebAssembly

I built Blaze Cache, a high-performance client-side caching library written in Rust and compiled to WebAssembly.

The goal was simple: make browser caching fast, predictable, and easy to integrate — without turning it into a heavy framework.

Why Wasm?

Most browser caches are pure JavaScript. That works, but I wanted:

• More predictable performance
• A cleaner core data structure
• A single engine that multiple adapters could share

So the hot path (storage, TTL, tags, eviction) runs in Rust → Wasm. After initialization, get and set are fully synchronous.

What it supports

• Synchronous reads and writes after init
• SIEVE eviction
• TTL + tag-based invalidation
• Optional IndexedDB persistence
• Typed event system
• Adapters for:
  • Axios
  • fetch
  • TanStack Query
  • SWR

Example

 ts import { createCache } from '@blaze-cache/core' const cache = await createCache({ capacity: 1000 }) cache.set('user:42', { name: 'Ada' }, { ttlMs: 30_000, tags: ['user'] }) cache.get('user:42') cache.invalidateTags('user')
