Web assembly is catching on, which can theoretically be compiled from any language.

It's not exactly the same, since you're not dealing with the classic Layout+Style+Behavior model of HTML, CSS, and JS, but it's becoming pretty powerful and a few UI frameworks already support it.

Are there any big projects that are switching JavaScript for Web Assembly?
