I’m not saying it doesn't work. I’m saying it’s a waste of resources and won’t gain widespread popularity. The current trend is porting source code to languages that generate native code.
However, there are indeed some cases where it does make sense since we have it around anyway, and one of them is running the Typescript compiler in the browser, now that it is written in a compiled language.
A waste of what resources? Other people's time? That isn't up to you to decide. I think your comment is a waste of resources. But how you spend your time isn't up to me. And how wasm people spend their time isn't up to you.

Cool story, but without wasm, how are you gonna run that native code in a browser?
