What tools do you have in mind? I'm quite happy with the tools I have but that's probably because I've not done too much backend.

There’s plenty of tools, but they’re all written in JS, or dialects of JS, or compile to JS (generally with a performance penalty, if the language isn’t closely related to JS to begin with). The promise of WASM that excites me is using non-JS languages with less compromise.
