I also disagree with that.

Wasmer can run now Python server-side without any restrictions (including gevent, SQLAlchemy and native modules!) [1] [2]

Also, cool things are coming on the JS land running on Wasmer :)

Is the support for Python code provided as a Rust library by any chance, where you could do something like pass in a simple python function, run it in wasmer, and then get back the result? I know a lot of complications would come into play around supporting C-based dependencies and support for the WASM APIs for stuff like I/O, but I recently was looking into this for a use case where the goal is to be able to prevent stuff like direct use of I/O in favor of only supporting a few specific APIs provided directly to a WASM engine for the code it's executing, and the conclusion I reached was that the only viable options for that currently available would require either shelling out to something external or manually loading in a WASM-compiled interpreter and implementing the glue code to use that to execute Python myself.

Not right now but we would love to provide it.

We have been super busy lately, but when we have a chance we will work on it!

Without any restrictions except, well, performance, and still a fair amount of library choices. It’s just easier to use Go (TinyGo, actually) instead.

Wasmer looks v cool. I must check it out
