Wasmi
Efficient and versatile WebAssembly interpreter for embedded systems
wasmi is a lightweight WebAssembly interpreter written in Rust that is designed to execute Wasm binaries efficiently in constrained or embedded environments. Unlike JIT-based runtimes, wasmi focuses on interpretation, prioritizing portability, determinism, and low resource usage over maximum raw performance. It is particularly well-suited for blockchain systems, embedded devices, and other contexts where predictable execution and minimal dependencies are critical. The runtime implements the WebAssembly specification and provides a safe execution environment with strict sandboxing, ensuring that untrusted code cannot access host resources without explicit permission. wasmi also emphasizes modularity and embeddability, allowing developers to integrate it into their applications with fine-grained control over execution behavior. ...
