We’re excited to see our friends again as we embark on a whistle-stop tour of two of our favorite European events (and cities) in the 2024 conference calendar: WASM I/O, Barcelona and KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2024, Paris. With the release of WASI 0.2 and the WebAssembly component model, we’re taking wasmCloud 1.0 on tour—introducing it to cloud native developers, and platform engineers, as the best place to bring components to life in production environments.

WASI Preview 2 officially launched! After a vote in the WASI Subgroup of the W3C WebAssembly Community Group, the standard set of interfaces included in the launch of Preview 2, aka WASI 0.2.0, is ready for use by library implementers. We've been closely tracking the different release candidates of WASI 0.2.0 over the last 6 months, and wasmCloud will update its runtime WIT definitions to the pinned versions in just a few days.

• Seamlessly operate WebAssembly across any K8s distribution via GitOps pipeline
• Orchestrate CNCF wasmCloud across K8s with Kubernetes Custom Resource Definition (CRD)
• Wadm supercharges Cosmonic Connect Kubernetes to create new Kubernetes controller

You've heard of the Grinch and the Cat in the Hat
But what about Wasm, did you hear about that?
Dive into this poem, take a quick look
The story of Wasm, in this neat little book

WIT, or Wasm Interface Types, allows WebAssembly modules to communicate with each other using complex data types. WIT is a language agnostic interface definition language (IDL) that enables composing WebAssembly components, regardless of source language, using language-specific bindings. If you're using a WIT-generated set of language bindings it will feel just like using a regular language SDK. If you're writing your own WIT, then this guide is for you!

• Component Model update published: WASI-Preview 2 now MVP
• Cosmonic componentizes wasmCloud and Cosmonic PaaS
• Creates standards-based, vendor-neutral environment for building distributed apps
• Spurs wave of PaaS innovation

New to the Cosmonic PaaS, we’re introducing an easy-to-use UI for managing declarative Wasm applications. Just like the platform’s opinionated views for Logic and Infrastructure, the new Application View provides a user interface for interacting with Wadm applications defined using the Open Application Model (OAM). This view includes an in-UI YAML editor and YAML validation.

The Cosmonic wormhole exposes an HTTPS endpoint for your application that's accessible from outside of your constellation. Any actor with the HTTP Server capability can use a wormhole through Cosmonic's implementation of the HTTP Server provider. When you first create a wormhole, a randomly generated DNS name like fuzzy-lake-1234.cosmonic.app. These random DNS names are auto-generated; a couple of familiar words and numbers, designed to be unique but user-friendly, no long strings of random characters.

Earlier this year, alongside our friends at DevPost, we launched the Cosmonic Distributed WebAssembly Hackathon and encouraged you all to get creative with Wasm and the Cosmonic platform.

We asked you to take your ideas, whether something that would improve your daily work, something that could replace functionality in an existing application, or be the beginnings of a potential startup and implement them using WebAssembly, hosted on Cosmonic.

We saw hundreds turn out to build hacks, side hustles and creative ideas on Cosmonic, and to snag a share of our $4,500 prize pot -- and we weren't disappointed!
