I have used Jco quite a bit (and contributed a few times) to build out simple utilities binding Rust code to JS [1][2]. I think it is great and the Component Model is the most exciting step towards real useful polyglot libraries I have seen in years. I wish it were better publicized, but I understand keeping things lowkey until it is more fleshed out (the async and stream support coming in Preview 3 are the real missing pieces for my usecases).

Currently this is a huge focus of most of the people working on stuff, and Jco is one of the implementations that needs to be done before P3 can ship, so we're hard at work on it.

I certainly agree (I'm biased) -- I think it's going to be a kind of tech that is new for a little bit and then absolutely everywhere and mostly boring. I think the docker arc is almost guaranteed to happen again, essentially.
The architectural underpinnings, implementation, and possibilities unlocked by this wave of Wasm is amazing -- truly awesome stuff many years in the making thanks to many dedicated contributors.
