Rust

1. Setup Rust WASM again
2. Define MathLayout data structure in Rust
3. Try out the 4 parsers (which can be compiled?)
4. Simple parser (just joins numbers or something)
5. JS integration (JS -> JSON -> MathLayout or maybe a custom serializer ... and then the other way around)

Regarding the bundlers:
Well Webpack is slow, so that's not fun.
Parcel doesn't support Rust yet, so that's also a no-go parcel-bundler/parcel#3365
Rollup might work? https://github.com/wasm-tool/rollup-plugin-rust#readme
Or Vite https://github.com/rwasm/vite-plugin-rsw
Or directly using it https://rustwasm.github.io/wasm-bindgen/examples/without-a-bundler.html (maybe I need https://github.com/Menci/vite-plugin-wasm as well? There's also vitejs/vite#7763 and vitejs/vite#4551 )
Or with Esbuild https://github.com/Tschrock/esbuild-plugin-wasm-pack

Remember to improve the performance by doing https://github.com/rictic/airlock.chat#improve-build-performance and also do https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/z1rtcb/compiler_option_to_make_all_panics_be_undefined/

Future things

• https://github.com/bjorn3/rustc_codegen_cranelift instead of LLVM
• Use lld by default on x64 msvc windows rust-lang/rust#71520 is a faster linker

How fast is https://trunkrs.dev/ in terms of hot reloading?
Answer: slow-ish
