It's quite fun to think about the restrictions of this - getting an animation loop going, for example.
I haven’t tried docker, but given the widevine hack used it, presume all is ok on that front.
For me, JS needs only a handful of things doubling down on its existing nature. Literals for symbols, sets and maps would be a great start.
If we’re getting fancy, persistent / immutable data structures would be fantastic, especially given how modern js is written.
A better standard library would be the cherry on top.
Did you try pretending to be a search engine crawler, for an idea..?
From the start, it was clear that a decent arm chip in a laptop is very usable. Paired with an SSD, and more ram, it would be killer.
MacOS would need some care to make it less heavy in terms of background consumption, but I don’t see that as being beyond Apple’s reach. Windows is a different matter, not sure what MS can bring to the table there.. The work being done right now in porting iOS applications to work on macOS clearly points to a strategy being developed.
Think it’s going to be an interesting couple of years.
I use these a bit when I’m being more thoughtful, it’s a nice way to think about creating chunks of style that don’t get included in the output, bit surprised they weren’t mentioned yet.

my favourite way of demonstrating this was actually to turn js off and still see everything working. the progressive enhancement flag is still flying, and tools like this make it easier by far.
in this case, the server could be (soon!) java/clojure, which is insanely hard to do in an idiomatic, pleasant way with react components. really looking forward to getting this all wired up, and if anyone is interested we're discussing how to get hdom talking to CLJS here: https://github.com/thi-ng/umbrella/issues/36
Jumping into AWS, at least in my work environment, is a big jump requiring lots of supporting infrastructure etc. We’ll get there if it works out, but the dockerized setup is really helping in learning and evaluation.
Officially supported ways of doing this is something i’m sure you’ve considered before, it would be nice if cognitect could reconsider this.
