There's a really minimal amount of code on web servers nowadays with javascript frameworks and databases doing all the work. I actually use the size of a vibe.d application (2mb) to my advantage to produce a plugin that will overload certain requests on the client's computer (via a windows service or launchd daemon and reverse proxy). This allows much more extensive use of local resources, which is really untapped way of developing web applications at the moment, it really lets your imagination fly.
Would you care to give a bit more colour on this? Sounds very interesting. So you have an executable running on client machine that they need to download and install (fine for a corporate internal application, I guess)? And then you serve your application locally, or from a combination of server and local url paths?
