🛠️ Waymark – A workflow engine that compiles jobs instead of replaying
Summary
Waymark is an open source durable execution library that compiles normal workflow code into stackless VM bytecode instead of replaying it. It runs on Postgres and uses a central Rust core to distribute tasks across one machine or a cluster.
Why it’s interesting
It compiles code directly by walking the AST and mapping logic to VM bytecode, allowing local proactive error flagging and Postgres-backed durable execution.
Target user
Developers building background jobs, agent runner loops, or workflow-driven applications.
