carbonyl VS SirTunnel

supports WebGL over SSH/MoSH

https://www.brow.sh/docs/introduction/ :

> The terminal client updates and renders in realtime so that, for instance, you can watch videos. It uses the UTF-8 half-block trick () to get 2 colours from every character cell, thus simulating basic graphics.

https://github.com/fathyb/carbonyl :

> Carbonyl originally started as html2svg and is now the runtime behind it.

Always wondered how brew.sh added the brew sprite there; that's real nice.

TIL that e.g. Kitty term can basically framebuffer modified Chrome?

https://github.com/chase/awrit :

> Yep, actual Chromium being rendered in your favorite terminal that supports the Kitty terminal graphics protocol.

FWIW Cloudflare has clientless Remote Browser Isolation that also splits the browser at the rendering engine.

A TUI Manim renderer would be neat. Re: Teaching math with Manim and interactive 3d: https://github.com/bernhard-42/jupyter-cadquery/issues/99

What would you add to make it easier to teach with this entirely CPU + software rendering codebase?

What prompts for learning would you suggest?

- Pixar in a Box, Wikipedia history of CG industry: https://westurner.github.io/hnlog/#comment-36265807

- "Rotate a wireframe cube or the camera perspective with just 2d pixels to paint to; And then rotate the cube about a point other than the origin, and then move the camera while the cube is rotating"

- OTOH, ManimML, Yellowbrick, and the ThreeJS Wave/Particle simulator might be neat with a slow terminal framebuffer too

or Carbonyl

have you tried carbonyl? https://github.com/fathyb/carbonyl

Maybe Carbonyl? (https://github.com/fathyb/carbonyl) It's a chromium browser for the terminal. You could use it as a backend.

I use EWW as a browser in emacs but sometimes I need a browser that is more GUI oriented. I stumbled on two such browsers that can be used in a terminal: Carbonyl and Browsh

If you want to self-host, there are many options. For something production ready frp is probably what you want. If you're a developer, I'd recommend starting with my own SirTunnel project and modifying it for your needs. For non-developers and those wanting more of a GUI experience, I created boringproxy. It's my take on a comprehensive tunnel proxy solution. It's in beta but currently solves almost everything I want. Once the server is running this is a very easy tool to use and has some nice features.

* Great examples which provided inspiration include Cloudflare tunnel, Tailscale Funnel, SirTunnel, Localhost.run, Fractual Mosaic, Pinggy, Tunll, and of course, the original Ngrok.

All you need is a cheap VPS with decent transfer allowance (RAM and CPU doesn't matter much) and this

Personally I'd recommend setting up a one-time ssh remote tunnel on a VPS. That's essentially what SirTunnel does. If that works, try adding Caddy in front of it to get auto-HTTPS.
