What You'll Be Doing
This tutorial is delivered as an interactive Instruqt tutorial.
In the Instruqt tutorial, you will learn how to ...
- install the tools and libraries that you'll need to build a WebAssembly module under edgeEngine
- install the edgeEngine runtime and the edgeEngine CLI tool in the interactive learning environment.
- download the demonstration code for the WebAssembly module
- build an edgeEngine image from the WebAssembly demonstration code
- deploy the edgeEngine WASM image into an edgeEngine container that represents the demonstration microservice
- exercise the demonstration microservice from the command line
