This takes weeks and can often take months. If the choice is between writing the business case, getting management sign off and waiting weeks for deployment vs running it immediately in the browser, I'm choosing the browser.
- svnpenn 4y agoUnderstood. However what you're saying is quite different from the other user, who was saying "Everything has to be in the browser now".
- antihipocrat 4y agoMy read on that comment was more along the lines of everything must also be available to run in the browser now because users demand it. The performance of apps run in the browser has improved so much lately that users' habits and expectations have shifted.
- Animats 4y agoRight. Can we just run Docker containers in the browser and be done with it?
