WebContainers are now supported in Firefox on desktop and Android
I feel weird about what's happening in the browser.I can't put my finger on it, but something seems off...We're moving towards an operating system on top of an operating system (browser)...And now, node.js and other runtimes, in the browser, on top of that.I'm hoping we can flatten this at some point...It seems like the core problem is that:1. Operating system vendors have failed to provide UI SDKs that beat HTML & CSS (plus browser APIs for modification of that HTML and CSS).2. Operating system vendors have failed to have such a UI SDK work cross-platform across operating systems.3. Operating system vendor UI SDKs do not allow UI to be bootstrapped dynamically (e.g. retrieved dynamically over the web) and built-up in code via APIs as simple as browser APIs.4. A failure in open distribution and discovery of apps.Am I wrong?Is this direction in computing a failure of OS vendors to get together and solve this problem?This seems like a source of sudden disruption some day...I feel like one day Microsoft is going to wake up to find they're not needed anymore.
