You can compile the interpreter itself (such as CPython) to Wasm/WASIX and let Wasmer do it's thing :)
What about third-party modules? Next.js depends on SWC, which is written in Rust. Will it run on wasmer?
BTW, SWC is already powered by Wasmer!
This post is coated with lots of marketing fluff, while not directly answering the questions I most care about; How does it work? What can I host with it? How does the pricing compare (free tier?)?
If you are interested in knowing how it works I recommend reading the docs [1], we have invested quite some time in them. Please let us know if more info might be useful and we will work on updating them.
> What can you host with it
Right now any static sites and Rust applications (including webservers and other TCP/UDP applications). Support for Node.js and Python is coming very soon!

During the private alpha, Wasmer Edge will be completely free for its users.
Once the beta becomes public and available to everyone, pricing is expected to be comparable to Cloudflare Workers. We have also drafted the pricing on the product page [2]

I imagine that admin panel has those answers, but well, I'm really not doing a deployment to see it. (I'm not even creating an account.)
How does this work with applications that need databases or other stateful things?
If you use tokio in this, is it effectively a single-threaded tokio runtime, or do you have a way to take advantage of multiple cores?

Persistence is on the roadmap though.
