How many web developers understand that a low-end integrated GPU on a laptop can draw full 4k screens of pixels at 3000 frames per second?

Want high quality antialiased fonts? Sure, you can use something like texture atlassing, and it will be extremely fast, but that approach becomes far more difficult if you want to do anything beyond supporting basic Latin character sets.
(You are talking to someone who has done texture atlassing on games with Chinese and Arabic, so respectfully, it is clear you are vaguely reaching for reasons this is hard, rather than actually knowing).

This is great, we are hoping it's not THAT hard actually. Because then we have a real solid 10-100x perf story for web UI. First example we made: https://makepad.dev (rust+wasm+webGL) press 'alt' in the code editor for live fold anims. Also runs on quest 2 in webVR

We use shaders instead of CSS, and immediate mode. Now working on an interpretable UI DSL so you can have a visual designer 'as well' as an immediate mode draw API (for which visual designers don't map very well).
