Yep. That's my take. The vision is that you write code in any language you like. You compile (transpile?) it down to efficient low-level JS (WASM), run in the browser as if you wrote JS code.

I have zero experience with it, but I think I get it and it's neat. I'm a little curious about what working with the DOM is like in C# > WASM or Rust > WASM. I pitty the foo who had to code that... and will we get non-breaking, more efficient native DOM manipulation at some point?



WASM is not low level JS

There was a "predecessor" project (Asm.js) that would output low level JS, though.
