Web: The good parts
summary
Shows which browser features actually change what gets built: web workers move CPU work off the main thread so a canvas animation keeps running while a prime calculation blocks the page, off‑screen canvas lets rendering happen in a worker, audio worklet + WASM runs a C auto‑tune in real time, Web MIDI and web bluetooth send and receive device data (demoed controlling a crossbow), and proposals like content‑visibility, portals and native file system address real app gaps.
