Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter

Edge.js is a new JavaScript runtime designed to safely run Node.js workloads for AI and Edge computing. It differentiates itself from other edge runtimes by preserving full Node.js compatibility, isolating unsafe system calls and native modules through WebAssembly (WASIX) while running the JavaScript engine natively. This architecture allows existing Node.js applications and native modules to run unmodified in a secure, sandboxed, serverless environment.
