What is the forward paths available for efforts like the TS Playground under Typescript 7 (native)?

One of the nice advantages of js is that it can run so many places. Will TypeScript still be able to enjoy that legacy going forward, or is native only what we should expect in 7+?

We anticipate that we will eventually get a playground working on the new native codebase. We know we'll likely compile down to WebAssembly, but a lot of how it gets integrated will depend on what the API looks like. We're currently giving a lot of thought to that, but we have good ideas. https://github.com/microsoft/typescript-go/discussions/455

Will this be a prerequisite of the 7.0 release?
