I haven't got much experience with WASM, but is dependency hell something that WASM completely solves?

All of the cruft that you don't use will get optimised away by the compiler, right?

I'm not aware of any production ready WASM frameworks, but I'm ready for it.

1. WASM is non-JavaScript code, so it's unrelated to npm

2. Whatever dependency hell exists in the source language still exists at WASM compilation time

3. There will never be WASM frameworks because they're generally not the bottleneck.

The closest to WASM framework was Cappuccino, which let you compose a whole application in a language close to Objective-C

1. Not related to npm, but related to the web.

2. True, but compilers are generally better than transpilers.

3. Have you seen https://yew.rs/ ?
