When Is WebAssembly Going to Get DOM Support? Or, how I learned to stop worrying and love glue code
SMRTR summary
WebAssembly (Wasm) is designed to be separate from JavaScript while remaining part of the web platform. It interacts with web APIs through JavaScript glue code, allowing applications to benefit from Wasm's performance without eliminating JavaScript entirely. Ongoing improvements focus on reducing overhead and enhancing performance in various areas. The Wasm Component Model is being explored for more direct web API access, but challenges persist in separating Web IDL from JavaScript and implementing cross-language support.
