Browser APIs Take Center Stage: The Web as the New OS

Modern browser APIs are rapidly transforming what's possible for web applications. File system access APIs allow direct manipulation of local files, WebGPU brings high-performance, real-time graphics rendering to the browser, and WebRTC enables seamless peer-to-peer communication. These capabilities combine to enable the web to function like a full-fledged operating system.

The future is clear: JavaScript will increasingly serve as a gateway to hardware-level functionality without requiring native app installation. For developers, this means the next generation of web applications will be more powerful, interactive, and closer to desktop and mobile experiences than ever before.
