- dkersten 9y agoIt doesn’t look like that to me. It looks like normal Qt/QML (which does use JavaScript, sure) but with a browser-based front end. Possibly streamed over a network. Kinda like X forwarding.
- IshKebab 9y agoCouldn't be more wrong. The GUI is written in C++ and is running on the server. It streams its OpenGL calls to a web browser. It's basically a way to remotely view a Qt app. Like VNC but faster and better integrated into browsers.
- pier25 9y agoBut VNC is video streaming, right? What are the instruction being sent to the browser? "paint this text" here, "paint this surface" here, etc?
