Is this a stupid idea? Would it be possible, without excessive hacking, to embed a fully functional Web GUI inside a Grasshopper component? I am not an experienced coder, but using modern tools I am able to build highly complex, aesthetically pleasing, and functional GUIs in HTML and JS. I’ve tried embedding a WebView in a GH2 component; so far I’ve managed to nest it within a popup menu, but my goal would rather be to fit it directly within the component’s bounds, with the ability to display it at a size of, for instance, 600x300 px. A component Input → HTML GUI → Output workflow seems entirely feasible, but I don’t know if there is a straightforward way to embed this WebView directly into the component - similar to how the Content Viewer Component implements Rhino Viewport in Grasshopper 1. I also have a more general question: do you see any major drawbacks or red flags in pursuing this approach? Building these exact same things in Eto is simply much more difficult…
