" summary

Concrete wins and concrete costs: 87% of browsers already ship WebAssembly so deployment is realistic, Figma ports show Figma 3× speed for hot paths and a sequencing tool reports 20× speedups, big C/C++ apps like AutoCAD run in the browser, and demos include Unity games at 60fps, Squoosh image compression, PDFKit and an actual Windows 2000 running in the browser. Toolchain details: Emscripten, Rust plus wasm-bindgen and wasm-pack, web-sys/js-sys are used and interop works.
