It's a bit confusing. Roughly: * a refactor of Node.js, but using a standardized API for JS engine interop * Integration with the Wasmer CLI so it will run JS with v8 but, everythi…

Hmm, I tried it out. > wasmer app create --template=static-website gets you from empty folder to initialized template and deployed static website in like 10 seconds when logged in.…

A comparison with Tails would be nice. A big difference is the base distro. I used Arch for many years, so I love it as daily driver. But for a security-critical context such as th…
