It's unclear to me why anyone would want to do this, since it combines
the disadvantages of both Javascript (interpreted, non-deterministic
execution) and Ada (manual memory management etc.)

If you want to use a typed language that gets translated into
Javascript, you might be better off using Purescript (purescript.org) or
even something like Agda.

Ada to WASM might make more sense than Ada to Javascript, of course.
