Application Loading Support #21

Hello!

I think this project has a lot of future, specially if a "Application runner" could be added, in the same manner Chromecast Apps work, basically using the PiCAST API to open a URL in it's browser and leave the APP talk using the API from there on.

Same Chromecast Applications could be called from the PiCAST and run them right away (they are all HTML5, CSS and Javascript).

Chromecast developers could just migrate they apps to PiCAST with minimal pain.

What do you think about it?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, this just came to me... It's an interesting idea, the only issue is Google has closed down Chromecast which is why PiCAST was really made to start with.

What do you mean exactly with "closed down" ?
