Wasmtime is a standalone, open-source runtime for WebAssembly (Wasm), the WebAssembly System Interface (WASI), and the Component Model. Developed by the Bytecode Alliance, it is designed to run WebAssembly code outside of a web browser, either as a command-line utility or as a library embedded within larger applications. Core Features: * Performance: Built on the Cranelift optimizing code generator, Wasmtime quickly generates high-quality machine code using either Just-In-Time (JIT) or Ahead-Of-Time (AOT) compilation. * Security: It prioritizes correctness and security, leveraging Rust's safety guarantees and undergoing continuous 24/7 fuzzing. * Standards Compliance: Wasmtime passes the official WebAssembly test suite and implements the WebAssembly C API. * Configurability: While it uses sensible defaults, it allows fine-grained control over resource consumption, such as CPU and memory limits. Related port: devel/libwasmtime. It is the same Wasmtime run-time built as a C/C++ library.
