SkiftOS: Simple, handmade operating system for the x86 platform
UEFI sort of handles this, even if the spec is absurdly huge. It contains portions referring to standardized ways of interacting with Wi-Fi cards and other devices, even if not all firmware supports it. I started an OS project[1] a while ago based on it.

bsdutils: Alternative to GNU coreutils using software from FreeBSD
For fun, I ported much of BSDutils to WebAssembly. Code [1] and live demo [2]. It was much, much easier porting BSDutils than GNU coreutils, since the source code is often much smaller, and hence easier to read and understand with simpler dependencies.

SQLite 3.40.0 with WASM Support
For what it is worth, I also care about building this with zig. https://github.com/sagemathinc/cowasm/blob/main/packages/sql...

Adding Python support using Pyodide to our low-code framework which supported only JavaScript.
If it fits your needs and is working, then fine. Please remain aware of a different approach to what pyodide is doing based on perceived weaknesses in pyodide.

CoWasm: An alternative to Emscripten, based on Zig (demo: Python in the browser)
CoWasm supports WASI right now via this library https://www.npmjs.com/package/wasi-js, which I actually develop as part of CoWasm . One unusually thing I did, which goes beyond what emscripten does, is I implemented a quite a bit of posix functionality, often by writing extension code to nodejs and calling it from Javascript, because there's a lot of POSIX that Node.js doesn't expose. This only works on Mac and Linux and is also available standalone in this library https://www.npmjs.com/package/posix-node, which is implemented in Zig. You can get a sense of the scope of POSIX functionality that goes beyond what WASI defines here: https://github.com/sagemathinc/cowasm/tree/main/packages/ker...
One motivation for doing this is to try to get the full Python test suite to pass, including all the functionality that involves subprocesses, posix calls, etc. I've only got to about 85% at this point. It can be a ton of tedious work, but at least Zig helps impose some discipline (e.g, it doesn't let you ignore handling errors until later), and makes it easy to test compilation for all supported targets on every change (due to excellent cross compilation support).
