I'm always baffled by the crowd that suggests "Just use Javascript to interface it to the DOM!". If that's the outcome of using WASM, couldn't I just write Java

Maybe you should just write javascript. What's wrong with that.

Indeed, you should. I haven't found a Rust UI project that compiles to Wasm and has good ergonomics; they all seem to make the mistake of being frameworks that control the whole app lifecycle and reinvent either markup or cumbersome ways to build your UI. What would be nice is to use Wasm for component libraries instead, or for progressive enhancement (eg. add sophisticated autocomplete support to an input field).
