zig
General-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.
The Zig approach is what I am mostly interested in, as the Zig compiler includes shims for targeting WebAssembly. Since Zig can be used as a compiler for C/C++, this means you could skip the Emscripten part entirely and incorporate a build.zig file into your C/C++ project, allowing you to mix C/C++ libraries into a Zig project targeting a WebAssembly backend fairly easily.

InfluxDB
Build time-series-based applications quickly and at scale.. InfluxDB is the Time Series Platform where developers build real-time applications for analytics, IoT and cloud-native services. Easy to start, it is available in the cloud or on-premises.

Implementing said things, however, can be tricky, and the community is kind of spread all over the place. Rust is popular, but involves a lot of crates and boilerplate code being strapped on. C/C++ is an easy way of targeting WASM using Emscripten, and I'm sure it works well, but I feel it fits in the same place as Rust where a lot needs to be strapped on to bring you up to production speed.
