Comment on You might want to build your WebApp in Canvas instead of HTML

Comments

The dev tools in the browser become much more useless when you draw everything in a canvas. It's gonna be sad when everyone starts using frameworks that draw on canvases. Arguably more sad than when Webassembly came. One could probably write new dev tools for those frameworks though.

I also imagine this will be a big setback for web accessibility.

yes, and a big setback for the companies that do this when all the accessibility lawsuits hit them.

evidently people do not like to be reminded that if they do inaccessible things they will be sued for it various jurisdictions, and I have been downvoted for not bringing good news.
