# Wasm vs. Docker

**[Docker](https://daily.dev/sources/docker)** · 6 min read · 21 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Wasm and Docker are technologies that can work together to deliver consistent, efficient, and secure environments for deploying applications. Wasm is a compact binary instruction format that allows code to run at near-native speed within a sandboxed environment. Docker helps developers build, run, and share applications, including those that use Wasm. Using Docker and Wasm together provides consistent development environments, efficient deployment, security and isolation, and enhanced performance. Docker supports WebAssembly by integrating other Wasm runtimes with the Docker Engine. The future of WebAssembly and Docker looks promising, with advancements such as the new WebAssembly Component model and the release of projects like SpinKube.
