Server-Side Wasm - Q&A with Michael Yuan, Second State CEO
WebAssembly can be used server-side to provide the performance required by use cases such as blockchains and edge AI services. Non-standard extensions may address those use cases today, possibly weakening WebAssembly portability benefits. The gathered experience may however provide important inputs to current and future WebAssembly proposals.

Brahmos, a New, Small, React-Like UI Framework with Concurrent Rendering -- Q&A with Sudhanshu Yadav
Brahmos implements the known React APIs (hooks, context, concurrent mode, and more) with a different and potentially faster method that also leverages a standard feature of JavaScript: template literals. Brahmos is among the very few UI frameworks that implements the experimental concurrent mode API sponsored by React. Other frameworks may be waiting out, or discarding the feature entirely.

Improving Webassembly and Its Tooling -- Q&A with Wasmtime’s Nick Fitzgerald
WebAssembly, now a web standard, aims to grow beyond the browser. Wasm runtimes are implementing proposals to achieve this vision. Fitzgerald tells us about his recent work on WebAssembly tooling and his implementation of reference types in the Wasmtime WebAssembly runtime -- a prelude to interface types and easy interoperation between Wasm and a host language.

Functional UI - a Stream-Based Equational Approach
User interface applications can be implemented with an explicit functional relation linking events received by the user interface to the actions to exert on the interfaced systems. Streams by abstracting over time may express that relation concisely. A stream-based implementation is one of the three Functional UI strategies for implementing reliable, well-architected user interface applications.
