I wish so, but Google kind-of wrecks that proposition, introducing new stuff to the point that some developers might (unknowingly) use something that is not available on the embedded browser.
- HeyLaughingBoy 5y agoThat's kind of impossible when the server and the browser are on the same machine :-) Bear in mind that what I'm talking about here is making UI's for embedded systems easier to design by using web technologies. That means that we're only leveraging web tech for local use: there is no connectivity farther than (maybe) to another device on the same circuit board. Something like BoneScript (javascript for the BeagleBone) takes this step farther by building I/O extensions into the language so your system controller and webserver can be the same process.
