# WebAssembly ## Wiki Solomon Hykes, a co-founder of [Docker](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docker_(software) "Docker (software)"), wrote in 2019, "If WASM+WASI existed in 2008, we wouldn't have needed to create Docker. That's how important it is. WebAssembly on the server is the future of computing."[](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebAssembly#cite_note-Wasmer-Docker-84) Wasmer, out in version 1.0, provides "software containerization, we create universal binaries that work anywhere without modification, including operating systems like Linux, macOS, Windows, and web browsers. Wasm automatically sandboxes applications by default for secure execution".
