Single Page Applications using Rust

This is true if you are writing code that has a lot of UI interaction, but one sweet spot for WASM I've found is if you just want to do a bunch of computation on the client and surface it. For example, I wrote a SPA for generating crossword puzzles[1]. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think I would have been able to get the same performance in JS even with modern optimization.

That's really cool, thanks for sharing it. It found a 16x16 with a lot of complexity incredibly fast!

Nice crossword generator!

Now I'm somewhat tempted to write a js implementation to actually compare.
