Spin 2.0 — the open source developer tool for building, distributing, and running WebAssembly (Wasm) applications in the cloud.

The platform was built on wasmCloud for multifaceted app deployment for the cloud, browser, edge, and other platforms.

WebAssembly has grown far beyond its original intent of being used to develop web applications.

By enabling cloud-native back ends to run on operational edges, Wasm allows us to deploy business logic closer to users or data, even to places Kubernetes and containers can’t go.

Wasmer says the goal of WASIX is to allow any kind of program to run on top of WebAssembly, and this requires system call extensions that fill gaps in WASI. Bytecode Alliance says WASIX is non-standard.

Last week, a preview release of Kotlin/Wasm was announced as part of Kotlin 1.8.20-Beta. For me who has been nudging the Kotlin team to work on WebAssembly support since June 2016, that’s a huge step forward even if providing WebAssembly first class support for Kotlin will be a long journey. I also decided recently to contribute actively by creating KoWasm, an experimental side project intended to provide WebAssembly Component Model and WASI support for Kotlin/Wasm, with the goal to see th...
