It's still a single threaded run time. There's one platform that's ideal for web, BEAM, but unfortunately it doesn't have a strongly typed language. Elixir and Erlang are both great languages though.

I can't speak to whether or not the BEAM is ideal for the web, but I will say I've been watching the Gleam project very closely because having static typing with the BEAM is a dream of mine.
