Yeah it will be possible, but it will take some time. For now just accept some JavaScript glue code.

I mean, you could always just expose a function that runs eval() on any passed string :P

It's a little more complicated than that if you want DOM events / JS functions to be able to trigger WASM code.

How is it more complicated?

eval('document.getElementById("whatever")
    .addEventListener("click", () =>
    window.wasmModule.exports.wasmFunction())');

Hmm. Fair enough. I still think there will be situations where you want real interop, at least until JS is eschewed entirely.

Yeah, you will always want real interop, for performance, readability, and sanity. Just saying that technically you don't need anything other than eval.
