Personally, I think non-JS web technologies will become a lot more prevalent once web-gpu takes off…either that or someone will just make UnrealEngine.js as if the JavaScript ecosystem isn’t already enough of a Frankenstein’s Monster.
That’s very much possible but also not really idk, webGPU seems like a new generation of webGL and while some engines supported exporting to it, such as Unity, others didn’t and idk if that’ll change. Because in the end, as far as I understand, webGPU is only a specification for interacting with GPU and displaying graphics, shaders and stuff like that, while all the backend code with game scripts, logic, AI et all has to still be ported to JS, which is ehhhhh not that great. And wasm can interop with webGPU anyway
Yeah I meant more that the ability to have gpu-intensive content on the web will spur development of non-JS web tech to enable it to be leveraged more effectively, not that it would instantly allow thinks like Unity to just be moved over to the web as-is.

I definitely wasn’t clear in my wording lol.
