yeah, which is why I have “write once, run anywhere” in quotes. The difference being that this is language agnostic and run by standards bodies. its just a compilation target.
We already are trying to do write once, run anywhere with containerization, except that containers use lots of memory and space because you need to virtualize an entire OS.
Whereas WASM is just the bytecode for my program, and I can give that to a WASM interpreter or a compiler to compile to machine code.
