I think WebAssembly is really going to shake things up here in the next few years.

  Why? Besides easy deployment (sometimes), what does it offer over desktop applications?

    Over desktop applications? Ease of deployment, cloud based, etc. Most things have already moved to the web anyway, so it's not really a competitor against desktop applications, it's a competitor to everything that is already in the web.

      As far as I know it's not suited as target for many mainstream languages. It's more like the NDK in Android. So ppl can write high performance libs in non-gc languages like C or Rust.
