I wish the same mate, Please wasm team, I am more than happy waiting 3 years if you can guarantee that you are looking into the best way possible into integrating this feature of dom manipulation.

I sometimes feel like js is too magic-y, I want plain boring golang and want to write some dom functions without using htmx preferably.

Please give us more freedom! This might be the most requested feature and this was how I came across knowing wasm in the first place (leptos video from some youtuber I think, sorry if i forgot)

I was even trying to be charitable and read the feature list for elements that would thin down a third party DOM access layer, but other than the string changes I’m just not seeing it. That’s not enough forward progress.

WASM is just an extremely expensive toy for browsers until it supports DOM access.
