In this episode, Colin Eberhardt is joined by Bailey Hayes from Cosmonic and Sean Isom from Adobe – between them, they have a wealth of WebAssembly experience and insights.

They start by discussing the early days of WebAssembly, and where it all began, in the browser. They debate the infamous tweet that compares WebAssembly to Docker, and look at the future promise of the Component Model, which aims to break down language barriers.

Given the amount of activity happening in the WebAssembly/WASI/Component Model space, there are a few upcoming events you might be interested in:

• WasmCon, 6-7 Sept

• Componentize the World Hackathon, 8 Sept
