On: WASM: Big deal or little deal?

[julianeon]

The tl;dr seems to be it’s a big deal if you need game console like performance in your browser. Want to mock up designs there? You need WASM.

But if your answer is “I’m building a SaaS, I don’t need incredible cutting edge performance” - it seems less necessary.

Definitely. CAD in the browser? WASM. High-end photographic computation in the browser? WASM. Pretty much everything else… not WASM
