An Introduction to WebAssembly Components and Platform-Neutral Development

Explore WebAssembly components and their role in modern software development through this conference talk delivered at Copenhagen Developers Festival. Discover how WebAssembly components provide a higher-level abstraction compared to traditional containers, offering platform-neutral compilation that transcends operating system and processing architecture limitations. Learn about the parallels between WebAssembly components and serverless platforms like AWS Lambda, while understanding the key advantage of language flexibility in development. Delve into how the component model creates a sophisticated interface between platforms and software, moving beyond the conventional container-based approach. Gain insights into the practical applications and benefits of WebAssembly components for both software developers and platform providers, understanding how this technology can enhance productivity and deployment flexibility in your development workflow.
