> WASM is good for things that need to be as fast as possible

i would've thought that WASM was really only "good" for reusing existing software written in other languages not intended for the web, by recompiling it into WASM.

For example, you want to create a web version of an app written with QT or some other widgeting framework which could get a WASM target.
