Another problem would be the delivery. Yes, writing something that behaves like a browser would be nice, but it took 10-15 years for browsers to be present on enough computers to make a clear difference, and there is currently no reason to assume that a new technology that is the-same-but-simpler would have nearly as much success.
Of course, the solution would probably be to compile that code to something that works in actual browsers, which would be somewhat ironic :)
- emmanueloga_ 8y agoI would say, if you managed to cross compile your new browser into a statically linked binary executable weighting a few hundred kilobytes, it would become trivial to distribute and a very attractive “platform”.
- naasking 8y agoYou could probably easily render it in a regular browser using JS as well. Instant universal deployment.
- crimsonalucard 8y agoThey can bake in dual rendering solutions into the browser and wait for the better solution to takeover. Very similar to what is happening with JS and web assembly.
