- callahad 4y ago[I work for Suborbital] We're both all in on extensible software powered by WebAssembly, but the scope and domains differ. Suborbital is more of a turnkey / batteries-included service that handles the full lifecycle of extending SaaS applications with user-defined plugins. So it includes a web-based editor widget, a module builder service, storage and compute, administrative dashboards, etc. Extism, from my lay understanding, is more tightly scoped toward being a great library for running WebAssembly modules, in the same way you might embed a Lua runtime into an application for user scripting. Another big difference is that you can use all of Extism right now. Suborbital's hosted platform is still in closed beta :) (Waitlist at https://form.typeform.com/to/DHxjRGKx https://form.typeform.com/to/DHxjRGKx)
- bhelx 4y agoI haven't used suborbital yet but yeah, that sounds accurate. We're aimed at being a library and Extism itself is focused on building plug-in systems. I just signed up for the waitlist! Looking forward to learning more about it.
