smolvm has hit stable release: v1.0.0!
You can now fork smolvm.
It means you can fork to create virtual machines off of an existing one in less than 100ms, with all the processes cloned and running.
smolvm is the first to have this feature + cross platform compatibility (macOS and linux natively).
Here's a demo of a counter continuing on a forked clone while I only started it on the original!

This is probably a lot of what I will be focusing on for work in 2026!
