I poked a similar project a while back. If I can just as easily have understandable, easily debug-able JavaScript as output target, I believe that’s preferable. Particularly where extreme performance is not a concern.

Tools like GopherJS, Elm, Dart and such output JavaScript no human could reasonably interpret. WASM seems logical for them. TypeScript outputs very human readable JS (for the most part) and WASM seems to have little virtue.

As someone who learned JavaScript in the late 90s / early 2000s reading websites code, outputting readable JS feels like giving back.
