alt Hacker NewsThis is great!
While I think that with their current choice for the runtime will hit some limitations (aka: not really full Python support, partial JS support), I strongly believe using Wasm for sandboxing is the way for the future of containers.
At Wasmer we are working hard to make this model work. I'm incredibly happy to see more people joining on the quest!

Appreciate your support! We deliberately chose a limited runtime (quickjs + some shell applets). The tool parameter constraint enforcement was more important to us than language completeness. For agent tool calling, you don't really need NumPy and Pandas.
Wasmer is doing great work—we're using wasmtime on the host side currently but have been following your progress. Excited to see WASM sandboxing become more mainstream for this use case.
Hi, if you like the idea of Wasm sandboxing you might be interested in what we are working on: BrowserPod :-)
