I'm not aware of any tech other than wasm that I could be using to implement decent-auth: https://github.com/lastlogin-net/decent-auth https://github.com/lastlogin-net/decent-auth Things like JVM and .NET are great, but not designed to be embedded other languages.

Dynamic libraries come to mind.

  You have to recompile for every architecture and OS, and no security features.

.NET does support embedding: - As full runtime i.e. hostfxr https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tutorials/netcore-hosting https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tutorials/netc... (supplementary: https://github.com/StudioCherno/Coral https://github.com/StudioCherno/Coral) - As a dynamic library via DNNE with full runtime: https://github.com/AaronRobinsonMSFT/DNNE https://github.com/AaronRobinsonMSFT/DNNE - As either dynamic (easy) or static (hard) native library: https://github.com/dotnet/samples/tree/main/core/nativeaot/NativeLibrary https://github.com/dotnet/samples/tree/main/core/nativeaot/N... There are a few community projects which build on top of these to provide a more seamless integration with other languages.

  That's actually really cool, thanks for sharing. Does seem pretty low level and niche though.

    It is very popular in gamedev space whenever using C# as a high-performance scripting language. You are right to say this is low-level though, but low-level scenarios are not as niche for .NET platform as they are for other languages in this category.

You can embed JVM with JNI_CreateJavaVM(): https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jni/spec/invocation.html#wp15956 https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jni/s... It is used used by projects like Postgres PL/Java, LibreOffice and various native Java launchers/wrappers
