I just had an idea about the client part of web apps.
What if we produce the user’s dom on the server, convert it into video and stream it to him.
I know its not very efficient for heavy graphics apps, but there are a lot of other ones who would benefit from this system.
Each user will need to have his own dom-window on the server, rendered, based on the user’s screen size. Everything will be calculated there. Once we update his server dom we will take a snapshot of it, and create a streaming video to show in his local window.
The client will show the streaming video in an HTML5 canvas and also track clicks on it, which will be sent as coordinates in the user’s server dom for process.
We can even have various, advanced, html-like markup technologies for ui, since everything in the end will be based on canvas, video and click input coordinates.
Do you know if this thing exists or any tools to make it ?
