The Operating System for Edge Computing
We are working on the software that will power the next generation of Cloud Computing (Edge Computing) platforms using WebAssembly. You can see us as a mix between Docker (but 100x more performant in startup time, and with 100x more lightweight containers), npm (we released the first WebAssembly package manager: wapm.io) and the JVM (but more universal).
Wasmer provides a WebAssembly-based runtime platform designed to run universal applications across local, edge, and cloud environments. It emphasizes fast startup, secure sandboxing, and scalable deployment with templates and cross-framework compatibility.
Wasmer offers a WebAssembly-based runtime that lets you run programs safely anywhere, from local machines to cloud environments. It supports running apps built with frameworks like Next.js, WordPress, Django, Nuxt, Laravel, Hugo, Astro, Vite, and more, without changing code. The platform emphasizes fast startup (milliseconds) and automatic scaling, with built-in virtualization for security, templates for quick project kickoffs, a flexible SDK to run in browsers, iOS, servers, or embedded in languages, and cloud deployment with a few clicks. Users can start deploying for free and pay based on activity, aiming to optimize cost vs. utilization.
Who it’s for: developers, startups, agencies, and enterprises seeking portable, secure WebAssembly runtimes for edge and cloud deployments
Pricing available with free deploy option; appears to have developer/users community and templates, indicating early traction and ongoing growth
