It was very much the point to build everything from scratch.

Though to be fair, for tests I am relying on https://github.com/WebAssembly/wabt


The goal was to see if I could do it :D

Which is how lots of great things start.

But I guess now that it's done, the comparison is obvious, and as a wazero maintainer, I wanted to know what we could learn from your experience.


> the comparison is obvious

what is it?


Yes, I am considering using something like https://pkg.go.dev/context for this very purpose, though I need to read a bit more into it first.

Funny that you built a Python wrapper as I originally started this implementation in Python, which was...not a good idea. Claude hallucinated the acknowledgments section though :D


> What was the reason to create Epsilon as an alternative?

I wanted to build something fun, I did not check for existing implementations on purpose. I ended up putting more effort than I originally expected into this and now it's starting to look like it could be actually useful, almost by accident.


You can buy all the games you want without the Pro subscription.


Yea maybe. I don’t see a reason to switch from Steam or not use Nvidia’s streaming service in that case.


Just to clarify, are you aware that you don't have to pay the pro subscription to buy games right?

If you want 4k and a bunch of free games every month, you can buy Stadia Pro. But you don't have to.


Yes. But having a streaming subscription was what was interesting for me. If I have to buy the game I think it’s better to use a different service.
