20:40 < henesy> So you could probably write a server-side websocket listener
20:40 < henesy> Then write a websocket 9p client in that somehow translates to something on the web page
20:40 < henesy> To listen for websockets you basically need a full http stack so it’ll be kinda heavy
20:40 < henesy> This is probably trivial in Go tho
