Comment on WebAssembly (WASM) arch support for the Linux kernel

Comments

I think lightweight wasm OS runtimes can have real use cases for instance in "cloud terminals" (such as in Rancher or at hyperscalers) which currently just connect a web terminal to some k8s pod. Or in more snappy Jupyter scientific notebook ecosystems. But people have to meet a sweep spot of downloading <1MB runtime, realizing networking and enough tools within the VM.
