Is WASI (WebAssembly System Interface) a way to run WebAssembly outside of the browser on (theoretically) any device or is this a way to do systems programming in WebAssembly?
- CraftThatBlock 7y agoYes, it's like the libc of WASM. https://wasmer.io https://wasmer.io is a runtime with WASI support
- phickey 7y agoIts an evolving standard set of system interfaces. Right now it supports sandboxed access to the filesystem via a POSIX-like api, as well as other basic interfaces like argv, environment variables, random numbers, and timers. https://wasi.dev https://wasi.dev
