- All the work is done in my high performance backend, where I joyfully optimise my hot loops to the assembly level. The web view is a thin layer on top.
- HTML and CSS is a joy to work with in comparison to many UI toolkits. LLMs are better at supporting a web stack.
- The UI zooms/scales, and is accessible with screen readers (looking at you, imgui).
- Cross platform with low effort.
IMO you have to be extremely careful not to pull in a whole frontend stack. Stay as vanilla as possible, maybe alpine.js or tailwind, and I've got hot reload set up so the developer productivity loop is tight when editing the view.
