alexcrichton opened PR #4174 from improve-wasmtime-readme to main:

This commit is me finally getting back to #2688 and improving the README
of the wasmtime crate. Currently we have a [pretty drab README][drab]
that doesn't really convey what we want about Wasmtime.

While I was doing this I opted to update the feature list of Wasmtime as
well in the main README (which is mirrored into the crate readme),
namely adding a bullet point for "secure" which I felt was missing
relative to how we think about Wasmtime.

Naturally there's a lot of ways to paint this shed, so feedback is of
course welcome on this! (I'm not the best writer myself)

as well. We follow best practices for defense-in-depth and known
protections and mitigations for issues like Spectre. Finally, we're working
to push the state-of-the-art: we are collaborating with academic
researchers to formally verify critical parts of Wasmtime and Cranelift.
