Show HN: Munal OS: a graphical experimental OS with WASM sandboxing
I started on a Rust app that uses SDL3 and lets you script it via embedded V8[1]. But I'm very seriously tempted to fork it and embed wasmtime or wasmi and let you script it in anything, and include a few wasm compilers into the app for convenience so you just give it a file and it does the rest. Mainly because of the speed of wasmtime and wasmi compared to alternatives[2]. But my biggest concern is that this isn't adding any real convenience. You still have to set up whole code environments, which defeats the purpose of scripting it. Still, it's such a neat idea that I don't want to not do it, and I just might.
