A comment on Show HN: Cloud browser – headless Chrome and image maps.
What if it sent a DOM string instead of a picture?
The client would need some js, but mostly just click and input handlers. All the heavy JS runs server-side.
One could use v-dom diffing and only send updates to the client to reduce bandwidth.
But that is getting complicated. I really appreciate the simplicity and elegance of using image maps.
