How hard can it be to build a browser from scratch for three platforms anyways?
Apparently 20K lines of code and ~70 hours from first commit to last.

The latest entrant in the coding-agent-constructed web browsers is here, this one by @emsh.cat, and it's REALLY impressive - 3 days of development, 20,000 lines of Rust, no Cargo dependencies and it renders HTML+CSS extremely well

The advent of agents decisively settles the conversation. The real question is: how do you ship software that leverages their power?

Will VS Code bicep extension pick up intellisense or will it show everything as being invalid syntax?

Chris you're absolutely right. A few months ago I built an internal webapp to enable testing, it used boring technology (Razor pages) and a little bit of JavaScript where interactivity was needed.
I built it in no time at all, it's easy to deploy to a container app, no complex pipelines etc
Excellent read and one I completely agree with! SPAs have not delivered on their promises and lead to huge amounts of complexity with very little gain (especially for glorified CRUD applications)

More importantly, it's really about the current shape of deployment abstractions in Aspire and how the space is evolving.
