Congrats on the launch! Just yesterday I was pondering if I could do something like this for a saas I’m working on: I’d like to offer users the ability to extend their dashboard in certain ways (a la WP/Shopify plugins), but those ways require extending the ui AND the server code.

Extism seems like a great fit for this, I’ll definitely be checking it out :)

Thanks! I want to highlight that Extism supports both server-side AND browser environments, running the same plug-ins. So SaaS is a great example of a place where end-users may want to extend functionality that runs on the client, server, or both. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Sounds very cool and like it could be a good fit for our browser based runtime! There are still a few limits, but you can currently run the same plugins in your backend and frontend.
