 ## How it works
 
-`pglite4j` bundles a full PostgreSQL 17 instance compiled to WebAssembly (WASI) and runs it directly inside the JVM via [Chicory](https://github.com/dylibso/chicory) (a pure-Java WebAssembly runtime).

 The build pipeline that produces the WASM binary runs inside Docker and chains several tools:
