spiderlightning
A set of WIT definitions and associated implementations to enable app developers to work at a faster pace and require less knowledge of the environment in which they are executing.
We discussed that a bunch in the RFC: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/rfcs/pull/14 . The conclusion was, in short, that the current Wasmtime production users didn't yet require an LTS release process, and the maintenance of an LTS is pretty onerous, so we would come up with one in the future as those requirements become more clear: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/rfcs/pull/14#discussion\_r708638804
There's an RFC here: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/rfcs/pull/28 and Saúl Cabrera, the person who is leading this effort and implementing the compiler tier, has a work-in-progress draft PR here: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/4907
Yes, wit-bindgen is the way forward here. It's under active development, though a lot of the basic interface-types functionality is implemented and usable. As an example of it in action, check out the wit interface files in this project: https://github.com/deislabs/spiderlightning/blob/main/docs/primer.md
it is still very very very experimental. https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wit-bindgen/issues/314 is tracking the last few steps required to have a basic proof of concept of component model proposal.
