what is AOT shorted for?
does it necessary to compile .wasm(compile from C/rust) to in.c and out back?

AOT is an initialism for Ahead of Time. In this context it refers to the ability of Life (utilizing Polymerase) to compile WebAssembly code into runnable code as a distinct phase. It can be compared to Just-in-Time (JIT) compilation, the default mode, which compiles WebAssembly on demand.
