Server-Side WebAssembly teaches you to use WebAssembly components and the WebAssembly System Interface (WASI) to build web back ends. You’ll start with Wasm fundamentals and then quickly start building a realistic content management system complete with data storage, HTTP servers, and AI-generated content. As you go, you’ll see how Wasm integrates code from multiple languages and connects naturally with databases, AI/ML systems, and deployment platforms like Kubernetes.
