Welcome + Opening Remarks - Kate Goldenring, Senior Software Engineer, Fermyon Technologies, Inc.
A
Hi
everyone,
my
name,
is
Kate
goldenring
and
I'm,
a
software
engineer
at
fermion,
where
we're
really
excited
about
the
next
wave
of
cloud
computing
with
webassembly
and
personally
I'm
really
excited
to
be
kicking
us
off
for
the
day.
I'm
curious
for
how
many
of
you
out
there
is
this
your
first
wasm
day?
A
Well
really
exciting
to
have
everyone
here
today
and
if
it
is
your
first
time
we
have
sessions
from
9
A.M
to
5
p.m,
and,
as
Liam
mentioned
a
little
earlier,
we
do
have
a
webassembly
channel
where
you
can
keep
the
conversation
going
today
and
between
wasm
days
year
by
year,
and
then,
if
you
are
tuning
in
online,
there
is
going
to
be
a
q,
a
section
on
meeting
play
where
you
can
ask
your
questions
there,
since
I'm
kicking
us
off,
I
should
probably
explain
what
webassembly
is,
but
instead
of
giving
the
technical
answer
with
webassembly
in
particular,
when
people
ask
what
it
is,
they
seem
to
be
asking
should
I
care
about
it
and
the
cncf
wanted
to
address
that
question.
A
A
So
the
results
from
the
survey
were
published
this
morning,
I
think
about
30
minutes
ago
and
the
link
to
it's
there.
But
one
of
the
notable
and
motivating
results
of
the
survey
was
that,
rather
than
seeing
this
technology
as
a
short-lived
hobbyist
tool,
people
really
see
this
as
something
that
has
long-term
potential
and
a
disruptive
technology,
something
that
will
change
the
way
that
we
develop
applications
and
the
way
that
people
experience
technology
in
general
and
companies
of
all
sizes
are
already
using
webassembly
Amazon's,
using
it
in
their
Prime
service,
figma,
Adobe
and
Google
Earth.
A
A
So
webassembly
started
with
the
goal
of
bringing
more
languages
to
the
browser,
such
as
writing
a
c
plus
app
for
the
web,
and
it
certainly
succeeded
in
that
goal
of
being
polyglot.
You
can
see
that
people
are
using
all
different
types
of
languages
for
webassembly
development,
but
there
are
still
some
there's
still
some
friction
in
some
gaps.
A
The
first
answer
in
the
cncf
community
was
not
a
web
development,
which
kind
of
surprised
me.
So
I
did
a
reference
trick
and
Colin
eberhard's
2022
state
of
webassembly
did
find
that
web
development
was
the
main
answer.
So
what
this
is
saying
is
that
this
community,
in
particular
the
cloud
native
Computing
foundation's
Community,
is
really
excited
about
some
of
the
potential
of
webassembly
outside
of
the
web,
such
as
in
the
serverless
space
The
Edge,
space,
the
iot
space
and
more
so
regardless
of
where
people
are
using
webassembly.
A
So
clearly,
webassembly
has
the
potential
to
impact
the
way
we
use
technology,
but
it's
up
to
us
to
make
it
as
approachable
as
possible
and
Beyond
expanding
the
number
of
languages
that
you
can
use
with
webassembly.
There
are
also
other
barriers
that
we
can
break
down,
and
the
schedule
today
shows
that
we're
already
taking
active
steps
to
do
that.
So
we'll
hear
about
developer
tooling,
that
helps
you
run
webassembly
apps
in
minutes,
we'll
hear
about
the
component
model
and
work
in
Sig
Registries.
