"""The inner-platform effect is the tendency of software architects to create a system so customizable as to become a replica, and often a poor replica, of the software development platform they are using. This is generally inefficient and such systems are often considered to be examples of an anti-pattern."""
Like I said elsewhere, I'm not completely opposed to the idea of the browser as a complete and fully functional application container for an inner platform. And I want to encourage creative people to try new technologies, especially WASM to explore the idea of "how much can we move to the browser". However, I see the container as the mediator of the network, not the application.
