&gt; I see Rust as the big next step for the web—a language that is still a pleasure to develop in, but with excellent static typing and tight, targeted builds without the bloat and buildup I&#x27;m accustomed to seeing with current transpile-to-JS strategies.<p>I think this will depend on the output size of the compiled file. I&#x27;ve always gotten very large js files out of emscripten, which are fine for games or media decoders, but would be undesirable for (e.g.) a vdom implementation that&#x27;s part of a larger framework.
