When will Wasm grow, according to your gut? I feel like I've been waiting for a decade now.
WASM made huge strides last year. You can run entire operating systems inside a WASM hypervisor now, and lots of packaging and transpiling projects came of age last year.
Example: https://copy.sh/v86/?profile=windows98
Great, but can you access the DOM?
By saying gut feeling I hope I am being clear I have zero tangible evidence? ๐
Maybe over the next decade its usage will grow? Or maybe it will end up relegated to performance critical applications, or JS/TS just end up with the same/better performance anyway.
The next step is to implement things like this:
https://github.com/WebAssembly/tool-conventions/blob/main/Coredump.md
After that, all we need is a rich ecosystem of libraries in other languages. It's still a fair way off, but it's coming.
