I understand the sentiment. And by all means use WASM for the heavy lifting. But leave the UI to HTML and CSS. It's pretty good.

Every attempt at running a canvas-driven UI I've seen are dreadful. Flutter, probably the most prominent example, can't even get scrolling right. And then crashes on Safari [0]. This is only scrolling. There's so much else.
