I was writing web applications back in 1999. If I needed to write a web page or a proper “app” (whatever that means) today, why would I use Rust and Web Assembly? Don’t mean to sound arrogant, but is starting with the highest level of complexity a good idea?
> The goal of our application is simple: It's a portal where the victim will enter their credentials (thinking that it's a legitimate form), the credentials are going to be saved in an SQLite database, and then we redirect the victims to an error page to let them think that the service is temporarily unavailable and they should try again later.
Again, why do we need Rust for this?
And the code example puts mark up directly inside Rust files… why?
