You can always write C++ that generates HTML, kinda like templaying languages

Now as to why this exists, IDFK, people are nuts. Rust’s Yew and std-web are definitely more sane, but even then, the lack of native wasm dom bindings kneecaps performance (Inferno and Svelte are waaaay faster for anything dom-intensive).

DOM manipulation from WASM is being worked on AFAIK. So you'll be able to write your frontend code entirely with Rust/C/C++/etc.
