something simple and general, we have the current html + CSS +
Javascript + webGl + whatnot… And of course a huge pile of
Loup,
I agree that the Web is a mess. The original sin was to assume that people
would only want to connect to other computers in order to retrieve a
limited set of static documents. I think the reason for this was that
everyone sticked to the Unix security model, where everything you run has
