There are usages outside of the browser too. We are using wasm as a runtime for applications and modules deployed in small IoT device. Wasm helps overcome the typical limitations of those devices giving platform independence, sandboxed environments, ability to verify and sign modules ahead of deployment, allows developers to program in dominant languages and compile to wasm, and still retain a low footprint which is critical in this context.

- anoopelias 3y agoSometime back I did some experiments with WASM over ESP32 board[1]. It was fairly easy to get a simple WASM program to work, though there was a fair amount of (ongoing) work left to bring it into usable shape.
