Sponsoring WASI Support

[tufanbarisyildirim]

Hi @CharlieTap , we love this library.
We noticed that you mentioned WASI (or maybe WASI2 makes more sense) support with regards to this. We'd be interested in sponsoring the development of these bindings for the library. Please reach out to me at tufan@uprock.com to discuss.

I am interested in knowing the progress of the WASI2 support, is it currently being worked on ?

[CharlieTap]

WASI Preview 2 is unlikely for a while, it requires the runtime to support the component model proposal which is currently Phase 1. This means it will likely change a lot between now and its final shape, more often than not these larger wasm proposals are carved out into smaller ones.

Currently I'm only implementing proposals that are at least Stage 4 so they are well defined and I won't have to maintain branches of older (since changed) proposals.

That being said WASI Preview 1 is comprehensive enough to support 99% of syscall usecases and I plan to begin implementing this in the next couple of months
