A post for the geek in your life, which might be you anyway. Ludvig Liljenberg has written a post about creating a C-based function "micro-VM guest" for #hyperlight: with #QuickJS!! https://opensource.microsoft.com/blog/2025/03/10/build-a-hyperlight-c-guest-to-securely-execute-javascript/

Understand how -- and how fast -- you can protect an arbitrary .js file. Then run a bunch of things to test how it works!

Following on the first post about #hyperlight, @arschles has posted the second: bare metal, #webassembly, #wamr, #unikernels, the whole ball of wax: https://ecomaz.net/blog/hyperlight-overview-2/

The royally cool @arschles has written about #hyperlight, a project involving driving as much performance with density and protection as possible for #webassembly. https://arschles.com/blog/hyperlight-overview-1/

Over on #dotnet a great post on #webassembly components and #Csharp with preview 1, and what it might mean. (Also, a teaser about #hyperlight as a host.) https://dotnet.social/@dotnet/111523582287792568

@arschles follows up with part 2 of #csharp and #rust using #hyperlight as part of the discussion: https://ecomaz.net/blog/csharp-rust-2/. Part one was here: https://hachyderm.io/@squillace/111387388844773387
