Indeed. I cannot compare the implementations as flawless is not open source. However on a high level they both share the same philosophy.

I believe the biggest difference is that Obelisk relies on the WASM Component Model:

Obelisk aims to avoid vendor lock-in. It is possible to write activities, workflows and webhooks with no obelisk SDK. Activities and webhooks are WASI 0.2 components that can be run on any compatible runtime like wasmtime e.g. for testing. This should also help with the adoption as any runtime will need a ton of integrations.

I’m not sure there is much risk in vendor lock in. Look at Temporal. If you use the SDK you are probably locked in for life.

Would it be possible to see an example using Go ? Admittedly, docu for Go in the Component Model is pretty uneven.

I can do that. Please create an issue if you want to be notified about it.
