Why is Rust being used to replace parts of the JavaScript web ecosystem like minification (Terser), transpilation (Babel), formatting (Prettier), bundling (webpack), linting (ESLint), and more?

    The minifiers have long made JavaScript just as indecipherable

      You can deminify, decompiling is a bit harder.

      You can’t place breakpoints inside wasi binaries. You can place breakpoints inside minified js code.

        I mean, maybe it’s not easy because they don’t provide debug information, but a sufficiently motivated person can debug a web assembly binary.
