What Hacker News says

WASM is really interesting here. https://github.com/sql-js/sql.js is SQLite complied to WASM, which means you can run it not just in the browser but also in any WASM environment. https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer-python lets you execute WASM compiled binaries within Python. https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer-ruby handles Ruby. So it should be possible to take the WASM compiled SQLite and run it in other languages. This is a thing that really excites me about WASM: as a mainly-Python programmer it has the potential to give me access to a much wider range of tools.
