a bit niche, but here's one of my projects - svgnest.com
in addition to the render blocking issue brought up by this article, there are a lot of applications for cpu-bound web apps (eg. anything requiring machine learning or computer vision), but in my experience web workers are not very reliable for this purpose.
- infinite8s 7y agoI use webworkers to run an in-memory streaming pivoting engine (compiled from C++ to wasm) to build real-time Tableau-like dashboards that run fully in the browser (which runs fairly well for 10M row datasets or less). Network IO and the compute is handled in the webworker, which allows the main UI thread to remain responsive.
