Thanks for this post. This is the most straightforward article I've read about Web Assembly.
I think people haven't really started playing with because it involves the browser but it's supposed to be used for tasks that are typically run in the back end. We haven't yet broken through that mentality of having things happen where we expect them to.
By adding WebAssembly (which is getting multi threading) to the mix we'll be able to efficiently run web apps using the CPU of the client instead of running jobs on the server and then delivering the result to the client.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

Some are still trying to understand how to use web workers effectively or edge computing.
