And then we'll return to Java Beans and ugly, inflexible text layout, isn't it? | ||

We already back there, apparently many haven't yet noticed that all those systems have been ported into WebAssembly, the main issue is that tooling experience is yet to follow along. Silverlight, Applets, Flash, all have WebAssembly runtimes now. | ||

We’re already getting there. At one point we’re just ripping off the bandage. On the upside, most people don’t build their own frameworks. Implement it right in Flutter, MAUI, etc. in such a scenario, and almost nobody will be harmed. Also, for anyone who just says this is Java and Flash all over again - we’ve had plenty of technologies come full circle. WASM might be the one that gets us to full “web as app engine.” It already basically is, just badly. | ||
