There is a driver and firmware for sigrok for using the PI Pico that was posted to Hackaday a while back. It hasn't been merged upstream yet but I got it up and running today just fine building it from source. https://github.com/pico-coder/sigrok-pico

For my simple app, one-line calls to ESBuild in package.json seem good enough. I run everything using 'npm run dev' or 'npm run build'. See [1].
I suppose it wouldn't scale if the app got too big and complicated.

Nice! Looks like the protocol between the Pico and the Windows software is quite simple. Porting it to another OS shouldn't too hard.
Here's an unusual approach to portability for this kind of software: since Chrome supports Web Serial, a web app could do the UI and then it would be portable across operating systems (though still Chromium specific) with no software to install (assuming you already have Chrome or Edge).
Along those lines, I wrote a little web app that plots CSV data from a microcontroller board (which happens to be a Pico). There's not a lot to it, but I like it better than the Arduino plotter and it might be useful as an example:
