This repository is where the component model is being standardized. For a more user-focused explanation, take a look at the Component Model Documentation.

This repository contains the high-level goals, use cases, design choices and FAQ of the Component Model as well as more-detailed, low-level explainer docs describing the IDL, text format, binary format, concurrency model and Canonical ABI.

In the future, this repository will additionally contain a formal spec, reference interpreter and test suite.

The Component Model is currently being incrementally developed and stabilized as part of WASI Preview 2. The subsequent WASI Preview 3 milestone will be primarily concerned with the addition of async support.

All Component Model work is done as part of the W3C WebAssembly Community Group. To contribute to any of these repositories, see the Community Group's Contributing Guidelines.
