The first claim we make about wasmCloud on our documentation site is: “wasmCloud is a distributed platform…” The best definition I could find, on Wikipedia of course, is:

Today we thought we would give you a glimpse of the future of WebAssembly and wasmCloud.

TinyGo is “a Go compiler for small places”. It is a language designed specifically to work on embedded systems and WebAssembly.

We spend a lot of time talking about how the wasmCloud capability provider system, from its abstract contracts to the ability to hot-swap providers, is a way to separate non-functional requirements from business logic code.

With the general availability of GitHub Packages container registry, or GHCR for short, an easily accessible Docker registry made its way into the same platform many developers use for version control today.
