    Thanks! Yep - I wrote a custom React component wrapping v86 (see: https://github.com/hatf0/hat.fo-next/blob/master/components/... - needs some cleanup). The most shocking part is that Doom runs shockingly well through it, too. Looking into getting networking integrated with v86 too via Tailscale.
