- Join Colin Ederhardt, Scott Logic CTO and FINOS Board Member, for this online track as Colin and a host of technology mentors and coaches explore the full range of applications WebAssembly has to offer and consider where this technology will take us in the future.
- JavaScript has been the official “language of the web” for the last 25 years, however, just over a year ago, that all changed when WebAssembly became a W3C standard. Now fully supported by all the major browsers, WebAssembly gives the opportunity to write web applications using a wide range of languages via its sand-boxed and performance-optimized runtime, including the FINOS Perspective project.
