What is the point and usecases of asm.js?


ASM.js is a low-level subset of javascript that supports compilation from C/C++ and other languages. By itself it provide support for typed values and generates javascript.


However, can it be used to build an application drectly and if there is need for it?


I can think one case, where strictly typed numbers are important for a browser side calculations (ie. framework for doing complex math at the client side - financial representation of data, complex image processing and so on).


However is asm.js intended to be used directly, and how it could be usefull?
