I am currently studying the possibility of using vim via the browser, ie in web assembly. this option seems interesting to me because of the portability that the use of a web browser gives and on the other hand the ease of displaying web content in the browser, no need to convert to text.
problems:
-
vim user, I often need to go to the web, which forces me to leave the environment to go to the browser.
-
many programs partially integrate vim's navigation, but this is only an imperfect adaptation.
I would therefore like to answer these 2 problems.
The idea is to make a gateway between the website and vim with Fuse.
CEF = headless browser FUSE = file system user space VIM = editor
The Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) is a simple framework for embedding Chromium-based browsers in other applications. This repository hosts a sample project called "cef-project" that can be used as the starting point for third-party applications built using CEF.
