WebAssembly System Interface (WASI)

WebAssembly System Interface (WASI) is a set of standards that allows WebAssembly (a technology that runs code in web browsers) to interact with the operating system in a secure and consistent way. It enables web applications and other programs to access system resources like files or networking, similar to how traditional applications work, but with built-in security to prevent unauthorized access. This means developers can create applications that work across different platforms without having to rewrite code for each one, making software development more efficient and cross-compatible.
