Description

Sorry if this is a dumb question, and I browsed the source code and it looks pretty small and tight already. But would a WASM build of zdog make it faster or more performant?

Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by reviewing the existing JavaScript implementation and comparing it with a WASM build using representative canvas and SVG performance measurements. Done would require a documented conclusion about whether WASM improves performance and, if so, a defined implementation scope.
