  • capsule

    A Capsule application is a runner (or launcher) of wasm functions. Capsule HTTP can serve the functions through HTTP (it’s possible to use Capsule as a simple CLI with Capsule CLI). And soon: NATS and MQTT (by bots-garden)

  • OpenFaaS

    OpenFaaS - Serverless Functions Made Simple

  • Do you want to use a FaaS or just toy with making your own? If you just want to use something check out OpenFaaS, it's very easy to get started and is well documented: https://www.openfaas.com/

    If you want to build your own FaaS, I'd still explore OpenFaaS as its creator has documented a lot of its creation and you will soon discover the critical things you'll need to figure out for building your own similar service (i.e. stuff like sandboxed execution environment, API gateway, scaling up and down functions, etc.).

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • wazero

    wazero: the zero dependency WebAssembly runtime for Go developers

  • It's a Golang app, and I use the Wazero project as the wasm runtime (https://wazero.io/).
