Show Notes

I remember the days when we had to create Docker containers to deploy our apps…

Well, you still can use Docker - more on that later.

Fermyon Spin (and so much more) is a framework to build WASM (Web Assembly) apps. I covered a little of this back in Episode 65 and an intro to Fermyon a while back.

This episode was prompted by my good friend Tim Abel who also has a podcast called Software Should Be Free (check it out, some good insights here).

Quite a bit to get into in this episode - hence it ran over to 10 mins! which reminds me, I really should delve a little deeper into some of these articles and produce a video on my “Just 15 mins” YouTube channel… BTW, it is just full of tumbleweeds right now ;)

Anyway, Docker desktop also has beta support for running WASM modules too! Again, will get more details together and perhaps a video for that one!

Dotnet is not forgotten either! since dotnet 8, experimental WASM/WASI features have been thrown in.

Take a listen for more info
