WebAssembly in browsers hasn't progressed all that much over the last 5-6 years (~2011 was The Big HTML5 Hype Year =) .. if it's out of preview in another 10 that'll be plenty!
Current spec is extremely limited in capabilities anyway for the full RIA spectrum of needs (strings, objects, dom), at this stage practically useful mostly for numeric calculations and such. Certainly there are loftier goals and a lot of optimism with regards to implementation timelines, "buuut"...
- comex 10y agoWell, that's just not true. WebAssembly (not to be confused with asm.js) only started in 2015. Browser preview period started in late 2016 and ended very recently, and we're now on the way to stabilization.

- grovesNL 10y agoAre you talking about asm.js or something other than WebAssembly? WebAssembly was announced in 2015.
