With the exception that Wasm apps are based on a open standard, almost any language can target it, are more lightweight, and they can also run on the browser :)

- loic-sharma 6y agoI’m not sure I agree with the lightweight point. WebAssembly is missing features needed by many high-level languages. As a result, they have to resort to less than ideal tricks. For example, C# on WebAssembly runs using an interpreter even though normally it is JIT compiled.
- syrusakbary 6y ago> WebAssembly is missing features needed by many high-level languages Agreed, although at some point in a not very far feature most of those missing features will resolved. So in my mind is just a matter of time. The Wasm Community group is doing an awesome work on that :)
