The micropython-wasm project has released version 0.1a2 with a new command-line interface. The CLI was added to help illustrate the project's try-it-yourself section and makes the WebAssembly-based MicroPython environment easier to demonstrate and use.
- 5Simon Willison·6/6/2026open_sourceSandboxing Python with MicroPython and WebAssembly
Simon Willison has released an alpha package, micropython-wasm, for running sandboxed code in Python applications and is using it in a Datasette Agent plugin. The approach combines MicroPython with WebAssembly to restrict file and network access while allowing controlled host interactions and resource limits. Willison positions it as a promising option for safe plugin execution and other arbitrary-code workflows.
