Technically WASI 0.1, but I used it (via Extism[0]) to implement a simple login library[1] that works in Rust, Go, and Node. Would be trivial to add other lanugages supported by Extism. Overall I loved the dev experience. [0]: https://extism.org/ [1]: https://github.com/lastlogin-net/DecentAuth. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

If the code is gonna be written by LLMs anyway skip the js, directly use wasm and allow any language that compiles to it with something like https://extism.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

If you like that workflow you might love CheepCode[0] which I built specifically to support it! CheepCode connects to Linear and works on tickets as they roll in, submitting PRs to GitHub. [0] https://cheepcode.com. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
