Promising faster compilation and production-ready performance, Wasmer 1.0 allows universal binaries compiled from native code to run in lightweight containers on multiple host platforms.

Wasmer, a  server-side, open source runtime for the WebAssembly portable binary format , has reached general availability status. Taking advantage of WebAssembly for software containerization, Wasmer allows universal binaries compiled from C++, Rust, Go, Python, and other languages to run on different operating systems and in web browsers without modification.

With the Wasmer 1.0 release on January 5, the developers of Wasmer are citing “out of this world” runtime and compiler performance. They view  WebAssembly, or Wasm for short, as a crucial component for the future of software execution and containerization, inside and outside the browser.
