So the widgets are rendered to a texture and displayed in the browser with WebGL? Sockets are needed for mouse/keyboard fun?
Well, it is Quick Controls 2, so it is rendered in QML to an OpenGL scenegraph which I assume instead of being rendered locally is sent over WebGL. That should make the performance better for things like animating large images such as photos, though for single character changes in the text-editor it still looks pretty slow.
Can someone explain what that even is? Is for remote desktop? VNC?
This is confusing.
Yep, but unlike VNC which copies pixel data rendered on the server, this sends GL commands through the network (hence much less bandwidth is necessary); a web browser can then render the result of these commands on the client. It's more similar to a modernized remote X11.
