Yeah, but there isn't much temptation to make QT-like widgets on Canvas with JS, since JS is fully integrated with the DOM. While the temptation for web assembly is to do exactly that, and thus the parent question.
- CyberDildonics 8y agoThe parent question was about how webasm is different from Flash and Java. The answer is that it is fully integrated with javascript and only does what javascript already does, but with faster execution, faster parsing, and smaller file sizes. 'Temptation' has nothing to do with the lack of java and flash similarities, and the lack of being contained to a single component within the page that doesn't interact with the rest of it.
