By the time wasm supports GC languages like python or ruby, javascript may get a lot better. Will people still want to write client side apps in python?, even if it means that it will run slower and also you have to download the language runtime on a webpage load.
- cm2187 10y agoJS is not to everyone's taste. And certainly not to mine. In the line of business world, there would be a huge value added being able to use the browser as a distribution mechanism for what are effectively desktop apps, developped in a high level but statically typed language like VB, C# or Java. I don't think downloading the app everytime is a big deal on an intranet/local wifi. Also with things like the core CLR, the assemblies should be smaller.
