- kodablah 9y agoWASM can be good for other things too. It is portable and fairly easy to target. It's like asking "why emscripten of you have plenty of other languages to choose from, LLVM is good for executables"
- rictic 9y agoI'm ignorant of the details, but WASM is an assembly language that's designed from the ground up for running untrusted code. It will also have multiple independent open source implementations, which has some nice properties.
