The gc compiler considers it a first-class build target.
Like C#, the binary tends to be on the larger side[1], which makes it less than ideal for driving a marketing website, but that's not really a problem here. Installation of tools before use is already the norm.
[1] The tinygo compiler can produce very small WASM binaries, comparable to C, albeit with some caveats (surprisingly, the extra data gc produces isn't just noise).
