     6  wazero is the only zero dependency WebAssembly runtime written in Go. It is
     7  used as a library dependency, allowing Go applications to embed or execute code
     8  written in other languages. It is also used as a CLI, to invoke WebAssembly
     9  binaries, a.k.a. wasm files.

    35  ### How change works in wazero
    36  
    37  Most wazero efforts start as localized experiments, then progressively build
    38  traction before becoming a feature. Before you start a large effort, be it docs or
    39  a test framework or a feature, check with one of the above channels. Someone may
    40  already have worked on this in the past and might join your effort. Sometimes,
    41  features are intentionally absent, usually with rationale documented in an issue.
    42  Regardless, the best advice is to join the community before proposing change, and
    43  read one of our [CONTRIBUTING](https://github.com/tetratelabs/wazero/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) files
    44  which explains technical aspects of change culture.
