# Hadron: A Lightweight Spin Host

Hadron is an experimental, minimalist runtime for hosting Spin applications. Inspired by projects like [Fermyon Cloud](https://www.fermyon.com/cloud) and [Lepton](https://github.com/itowlson/lepton), Hadron aims to provide a simple and efficient way to deploy and manage Spin applications outside of the Spin CLI.

**Vision:** To be the most versatile and lightweight runtime for deploying and managing Spin applications, empowering developers to build and scale serverless applications with ease.

**Disclaimer:** Hadron is currently under active development and is not intended for production use. It is primarily a learning project exploring different approaches to hosting and managing Spin applications.
