Running WebAssembly code in Go
The next step is to create a Go project and run our wasm file with some runtime. For this, I chose wasmer-go.

Running Go code inside a NodeJS app with WASM (Part 1/2, 2023)
However, there are other, more fleshed-out, libraries like wasmer-go that provides a runtime and help us navigate around these limitations. The wasmer-go documentation provides a good summary of these challenges:

Plugo - A plugin library for Go.
I did some research and found a WebAssembly runtime that can run Go code that has been compiled to WASM. It seems to me that one could implement a plugin system using this. I might try.

The Carcinization of Go Programs
Thank you Syrus, appreciate your work with Wasmer. Congrats on the 3.0 release and Windows support! I just fixed guregu/trealla on WAPM to work with the latest changes. I think WAPM is very cool and I hope more people start doing releases on it.
These are the two issues I'm referring to:

Options for running WASM in Go?
I've been looking at wasmer-go, and it seems to be quite performant given that the runtime is written in Rust and invoked through CGo bindings. Is this what everyone is using?

Trying to write a cross-language library
Go: I don't know of anything higher-level than either exposing a C ABI from Rust and then calling it using cgo or using wasmer-go to embed a WebAssembly runtime in your Go program.
