Why WebAssembly is innovative even outside the browser
While a "host" application (for the WASM runtime used) is required to enable access to graphical output (or user input) it doesn't have to be a browser.
At the (almost) most basic level a chunk of memory can be used as a framebuffer--the host application would read the pixel data which the WASM bytecode wrote and then write it to the host display via OS-level routines.
There are some plans/experiments at making a framebuffer "device" available as part of WASI.
I've written a couple of graphical WASM host applications that aren't browsers (and which don't use memory for pixel data transfer just integer values returned from a function):
The "WebAssembly Calling Card (WACC) Viewer" is implemented via the Godot game engine and an addon that integrates the Wasmtime WASM runtime with the engine: https://wacc.rancidbacon.com
(Also implemented a WACC Viewer in Rust: https://gitlab.com/RancidBacon/rusty-wacc-viewer)
WACC specifies how to transform three integer values (returned from a function in a WASM module) into a coloured triangle in order to render it on screen.
Another "host application" I implemented was a libretro compatible plugin that loads a WASM module and then feeds the module with input from libretro & retrieves framebuffer pixel data (one pixel at a time :D ) via a WASM function call & writes it to the libretro framebuffer for display.

Lee's opinions on Umbraco + naming things
Why is this a problem? At face value, it isn't a problem. Taking a step back at a more global level, what does "uComponents" mean to the rest of the world? Many of the .NET developers who heavily use NuGet may have not even heard of Umbraco CMS, let alone a 3rd party plugin for it. What if people from the Uno Platform community are browsing NuGet for some kind of components extension library? You can see, this could get confusing outside the scope of the Umbraco community/ecosystem. On top of this, uComponents was developed against Umbraco v4, with its last release in 2016, now it's there to be lingering on the NuGet repository until the end of time, set in stone.

Dart 3.1 and a retrospective on functional style programming in Dart
Not a fan of XAML after trying to get into it, but there is Uno Platform. It wraps native widgets on mobile, just like React Native (which is good for accessibility), and uses C#. https://platform.uno/
My guess is that it's mainly focused on mobile. On Windows, it has no overhead (behaving like a normal WinUI 3 app), on macOS I think it uses Catalyst by default (which was developed by Apple to make more iOS apps available for Mac desktops) and on Linux it draws its own widgets that the devs try imitating the GTK style with.
On Android and iOS, it just uses the native widgets which I think is a better experience so you can see my reasons for guessing it's mobile-first. That may or may not be what you want.

Going from React to Vanilla JavaScript
> ...building UIs with the document/element api
When the whole premise is flawed, JSX or not, does it really matter if there is a better or worse way of misusing a technology not meant for UIs?
Leave HTML and JavaScript to Wikipedia and other hypertext document libraries.
Unfortunately, WASM is not there yet, but people are trying: https://platform.uno.
