Ok so if I’m understanding correctly Hyperlight lets you sandbox components of your embedded system using hypervisor/VMs. Hyperlight WASM is an alternative sandbox that uses WASM for sandboxing instead.

I guess if you only have WASM there would not be much need for Hyperlight at all, but if you have a mix of WASM and non-WASM code this would be useful.

I’m definitely having trouble conceptualizing what this even IS much less what one might use it for. Hyperlight is like a containerization system? It lets you host micro-VMs? And now you can use one to host a WASM app? Why on Earth would someone want to host container/VM just to run WASM code? Are we really going down the road AGAIN of taking tech made to run in browsers, and using it to make backend stuff?
