Web Assembly

why?

  • sandbox security
  • portability
    • universal APIs
    • anything that has the runtime
    • any language as source
    • Glueing together languages (in development modules + package system)
    • cloud updates for IoT (you don't have to worry about compilation )
    • Keeping up with ubiquitous computing (heterogenous devices)
  • Standard application inspection for security (3rd party)
