I wish that Apple and Microsoft would work together towards making it easier for people to make cross platform desktop applications.
It's largely uneconomical for most companies to develop and maintain separate apps using two different teams with minimally interchangeable skills.
Tools like Electron are, essentially, not a choice
I also wish that wasm would come sooner so we could have more memory and CPU efficient (threaded, statically compiled) web applications (for apps like Slack, messengers, Jira and so forth).
I know people keep saying "wasm is not a replacement for JavaScript" - but perhaps it could be an alternative. I know I'd like to write a web application in Rust but as it stands now there is little advantage to that, particularly without threads and DOM access.
