Regarding WASM... At least ... In regard to the state of joining Facebook groups about Web Assembly boils down to people that deeply hate javascript so it pretty much blows any good learning experience you can get out of those groups on fb, and I joined them all, and it always devolved into WASM vs Javascript and how much many of the folks that actually talk in those groups have devout hatred toward the language Javascript. After 25 years coding the web, it was my first ever experience being called a "hack" was in a WASM group... TLDR; WASM is slowly moving forward and is being spear-headed mostly by elitists who say things like "This is how the web should work.. " more than once... Full Disclaimer, ive watched exactly 3 tutorials averaging 3 hours each, and have high hopes for compiled browser apps and this standard known as WASM.
