This repository aims at providing an overview of the most important aspects of wasmCloud using easily digestible tutorials. For a bit more background on wasmCloud, check out our recent blog post.
This repository does not contain an explicit introduction into WebAssembly, but build on top of it. If you are unfamiliar with WebAssembly, have a look at the official website.
The component model is central to wasmCloud. Check out a small tutorial on it under
component-model/.
For more information on the component model, visit its page from the Bytecode Alliance.
NATS is a central technology to wasmCloud, essentially enabling the
communication between WebAssembly components running on the platform. Check out a small tutorial on
NATS under nats/.
WasmCloud components are essentially identical to components in the component model. We have not designed a separate tutorial for wasmCloud components, but they can be seen in action in the provider tutorial or in the Kubernetes demo.
Providers expands the functionality space of components. Check out the tutorial at
provider/ to learn more about it.
WasmCloud is a very capable application platform. However, in most cases, one requires more
flexibility to deploy services on a platform, especially since the WebAssembly adoption is not
currently very strong. This it can make a lot of sense to combine wasmCloud with a Kubernetes
platform to host standardized container workloads for services. We have designed a small demo on
this in the kubernetes/ directory.
