I don't disagree. What I meant specifically is that Rust dominates the space where you want to target embedded and the browser (Rust does well on embedded and has good WASM support). C/C++ does not support the browser well at all (you can say that it supports WASM too, but Rust has far more front-end frameworks that actually target the browser than C afaik).
- elcritch 4y agoAh, gotcha. Rust's tooling for WASM + embedded is pretty good. I actually want to get Nim + WASM running on embedded so we could do our own MicroPython like setup and not require people to know how to flash the hardware directly. I know Andreas doesn't care for WASM, but Nim could support native WASM relatively easily. It already does a "re-looper" for the JS backend AFAICT. which is the biggest challenge of WASM.
