But it’s not new. It’s been around for years. And I’m not really aware of any real uses on the web.
Other people in these comments have mentioned using it as an extension mechanism to other applications. That’s nice.
But what browsers use it internally? What popular JS/TS libraries? What big websites?
It seems Figma does, but I had to Google to find that.
It’s an interesting idea, but it feels a bit like VRML or something else so far. “It’s going to take off, just give it time.”
Some things will. Some won’t. But WASM doesn’t seem to provide enough above JS to overcome the “we can just use JS” hurdle for the vast majority of uses so far.
