@sunfish I had two pretty-basic questions! 1. Is WIT intended for audiences outside of standards bodies? (I see it used to define things like wasi-http, but do you picture WIT being adopted by, e.g., platform teams inside of companies?) 2. Where would you recommend someone go to start playing with WIT and web components? wasmtime+jco?

    @sunfish (A follow-up third question that just occurred to me: have I accidentally committed a category error by responding to your call for WASI questions with questions about WIT and wasm components? 😅)

    @isntitvacant 1. Yes. Wit and the tooling have some maturing to do, but platform teams defining their own custom interfaces and worlds with Wit are an important part of the vision. 2. [Web components](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components) are a different technology, but for Wasm components, yes, jco is a great place to start!
