Introduction to WebAssembly and waSCC - Secure Capabilities for Cloud-Native Applications

Explore the world of WebAssembly and waSCC in this comprehensive video tutorial. Dive into the fundamentals of WebAssembly, a binary instruction format for stack-based virtual machines, and its applications in web development. Learn about waSCC (WebAssembly Secure Capabilities Connector), a host runtime that securely connects WebAssembly modules to capability providers. Discover WebAssembly basics, including text format (WAT) and wasmtime, and understand the concept of capability security in waSCC. Follow along as the instructor guides you through creating your first waSCC project, signing it, and exploring waSCC clusters with Lattice. Gain insights into inspecting capabilities with wascap and working with waSCC providers. By the end of this tutorial, you'll have a solid foundation in WebAssembly and waSCC, enabling you to leverage these technologies for client and server applications.
