Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

The advantage of WASM compared with container runtimes
Right now most early examples alas boot a container with a wasm runtime for each wasm instance, which is a sad waste. The whole advantage of wasm should be very lightweight low overhead wasm runtime instances atop a common wasm process. Having a process or container for each instance loses a ton of the benefit, makes it not much better than a regular container.
Thankfully there is work like the Containerd Sandbox API which enables new architectures like this. https://github.com/containerd/containerd/issues/4131
It's still being used to spawn a wasm processes per instance for now, but container runtime project Kuasar is already using the Sandbox API to save significant resources, and has already chimed in in comments on HN to express a desire to have shared-process/multi-wasm-instamxe runtimes, which could indeed allow sub ms spawning that could enable instance per request architectures. https://github.com/kuasar-io/kuasar

WASM Instructions
Oh it’s certainly looking like that IMO.
You can run wasm in k8s: https://krustlet.dev/
Docker itself can run wasm: https://wasmlabs.dev/articles/docker-without-containers/
There are a few serverless runtimes based on wasm: https://wasmcloud.com/
A lot of those are powered by wasmtime or WasmEdge.
If you’re wanting to be able to just pull down a random app and run it as wasm, that’s inherently harder with wasm, because you have to recompile, and amazing compiling stuff is always harder than it should be. For example I compiled jq to wasm to other day, so you dont have to worry (as much) about the CVEs that was issued recently. https://github.com/rockwotj/jq-wasi

Crafting container images without Dockerfiles
It can, kubevirt is a project for running VMs https://kubevirt.io/ and there have been more esoteric things like WASM (https://github.com/krustlet/krustlet).

I Don’t wanna use Docker or kubernetes
Or you can run Krustlet instead of Kubelet. That makes it so you can only run WebAssembly on the cluster - so no Go, no Python, only Rust!

Why did the Krustlet project die?
But the project seems to have died: https://github.com/krustlet/krustlet/graphs/contributors

Does anybody have a use-case for Scala WASM compilation target?
There are some cloud providers that are starting to offer wasm support. Docker is currently working on wasm https://docs.docker.com/desktop/wasm/ There is also krustlet https://krustlet.dev/ which lets you run wasm in kubernetes

Are V8 isolates the future of computing?
> If one writes Go or Rust, there are much better ways to run them than targeting WASM
wasm has its place, especially for contained workloads that can be wrapped in its strict capability boundaries (think, file-encoding jobs that shouldn't access anything else but said files: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29112713).
> Containers are still the defacto standard.
