Isn't a browser for interfacing to http?
- vntok 1y agoThis tool is hosted on a website, and you access that website like all other websites, using a browser interfacing with HTTP.
- layer8 1y agoThe functionality isn’t actually in the browser, it’s in the files downloaded via HTTP.
- philjohnson 1y agoYes, that's a good way of framing it. Though technically the files are executed in the browser. Will be releasing downloadable desktop version soon.
- philjohnson 1y agoIt's accessible via a website so that you don't have to download anything, and everything running in your browser means the PDF never leaves your device, so it's 100% private.
- bigstrat2003 1y agoNot having to download anything is not a plus. Much better to make an actual application that you download, and which never touches someone else's server.
