Re: Isn't WASM going to kill Electron?

"And why you should bloat your system with all the Electron code when your browser or even OS will be enough to run them?"

Exactly... exactly what wasm is for. What I think some people are forgetting is that wasm can and is also used to draw.... wan't fancy FX like sprites or smoother transitions? Electron will slowly become the new jquery, but with way less uptake and far less longevity. Electron's only option is to become a IDE for wasm with that Frontpage/Dreamweaver feel.
