title: WebAssembly, JavaScript, and other languages
body: <p>With the advent of the New Era of the Web, WebAssembly, which is to be designed in cooperation by Google, Microsoft, Apple, and Mozilla:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><strong>WebAssembly High-Level Goals</strong></p>
    
    <ol>
    <li>Define a portable, size- and load-time-efficient binary format to serve as a compilation target which can be compiled to execute at native speed by taking advantage of common hardware capabilities available on a wide range of platforms, including mobile and IoT</li>
    </ol>

  <p>I would like to ask those who already possess this knowledge:</p>
  
  <p>Can potentially any programming language be compiled to WebAssembly once its made? Let it be C#, Java, Python, JavaScript, Ruby. If this is the case - could a web developer choose any language to accomplish things he would achieve with JavaScript now?</p>
