[Newbies] Squeak image as a Web App

[Yoshiki Ohshima]

Kanto in concept is like a remote desktop. Thanks to Squeak's
architecture, there is only one screen bitmap object, and thanks to
the browser technology, you can stream the bitmap to other browsers.
Events positions are computed based on the screen size, and sent to
the original host. And thanks to the multi hand implementation in
Squeak, it works.

So it is an image as a single model, and allowing multiple users to
interact with the model.

The Squeak version is a bit left behind, but you can try by going to
https://tinlizzie.org/kanto/snap/ , and then paste the URL with ?q= to
another tab, and move cursors around. Snap! has a similar architecture
so the same network layer can support both programming language
environments.
