A browser(/web) engine essentially takes in a URL(/etc) and gives you it rendered into a window for you to view and interact with. <shadow> does this too, almost entirely from scratch, made in JS. It runs in your browser! Node backend soonTM too? The host browser(/etc) is only used for networking (
fetch
) and renderer backend (<canvas>
).
I feel like I have opinions, but I can’t express them. This is equal parts genius and madness.
This conforms to the rule, “Anything that can be rewritten in JS will be rewritten in JS”.
