> I’m not impressed by wasm yet. One of the reasons JS is so good is because it can manipulate data without doing a full page reload, and wasm will do that, but another important reason is how productive modern JS is. You don't need a jet engine to make paper airplanes. Gluing jet engines to paper airplanes would indeed be counterproductive. > and wasm looks so ridiculously old aged before it’s even born. Wasm is about achieving near native level performance. For libraries and such. Stuff that your pretty high level js frameworks might use.
