Fullstack & Wasm.
There comes a point in your career where you're dissatisfied with the capabilities of the warm and friendly upper layers of your stack, and you descend into the cold dark waters where things are hard but fast.
I used to write primarily in highlevel languages, but if you want to write realy interesting high performance stuff in javascript, WASM+Rust is a really neat tech to use.
Similarly, with WebGL/WebGPU you need some familiarity with bare metal programming.
I still write a lot of JS, but I regularly drop down to Rust.
