WASM is going to make Rust [1] shine like nothing before. I love that all the Mozilla articles keep mentioning it together with C/C++. Unfortunately, writing Rust is an order of magnitude more difficult thatn writing ECMAScript, so hopefully it doesn't create a negative response from hordes of ES developers that want to check out this WASM thing. But it's so much more suited than C/C++ (the other obvious candidates). In a nutshell, WASM is not really intended for higher-level languages with garbage collectors, etc. For that kind of work, I'd stick with ECMAScript.
