Is this sarcasm I might be missing?

Thanks for confirming that WebAssembly still cannot manipulate DOM in 2024.

It can only call custom javascript functions that manipulate DOM AND I need to write some arcane function signature language for every DOM manipulating function I want to call.

I'll give another 4 years and see if they fixed this.

You really don't know that you can create WebAssembly in other languages?!? I used WAT to keep the example short, but that's clearly lost on you.

In that time, there are lot of things you could be learning. Embracing ignorance and belligerence isn't like to serve you well in the long term.
