## AI overview

This tutorial explains the WebAssembly Component Model proposal and builds intuition for module composition by comparing it with how native code is linked, loaded, and run on popular operating systems.

## Source excerpt

The WebAssembly Component Model proposal aims to make module composition easy and efficient. In this post, we'll build an intuition for how it works by analogy with how native code is linked, loaded, and run on popular operating systems.
