wasmCloud lets you focus on shipping features. Build secure, portable, re-usable components called actors and get rid of the headaches that come from being smothered by boilerplate, dependency hell, tight coupling, and making design decisions mandated by your infrastructure.
The wasmCloud runtime is a vessel for running actors and capability providers in the cloud, at the edge, in the browser, on small devices, and anywhere else you can imagine.
If you're new to the wasmCloud ecosystem, a great place to start is the getting started section of our documentation.
You can also take a look at a wide range of examples including our Petclinic microservices demonstration we've created to help illustrate a new way of designing, composing, and building applications.
The main Cloud Native wasmCloud host runtime is the Elixir/OTP runtime. wasmCloud leverages Elixir/OTP for its battle tested, massively scalable foundation; we leverage Rust for its zero-cost abstractions, safety, security, and WebAssembly support.
For running a wasmCloud host in a browser or embedding in a JavaScript V8 host, use the JavaScript Runtime.

The pure-Rust wasmCloud host runtime has been archived in favor of the new Elixir/OTP runtime. If you're looking for tooling to support running resources with the pure-Rust wasmCloud host, please refer to the archived resources file for compatible versions.
