- Rust + WASM

- WASM accessing DOM directly (and the subsequent explosion of front end frameworks completely bypassing JS)

I'm a simple person with mundane wants :)

I want this so bad. I have compiled C code to WASM before but without knowing JavaScript of course there is little that can be done.

Unfortunately for us, I think that most people come from the other camp, and want parts of their JavaScript to be more efficient, thus turning to WASM.

WASM is definitely one to look out for.
