Nebulus in the browser? #4

I think theoretically it's possible to implement this using something like BrowserFS https://github.com/jvilk/BrowserFS but it has to be actually useful.

Just creating this issue here so if there's anyone who wants this feature, they can share why it would be helpful for which use cases. Feel free to comment.

I'm creating an application that would allow a user to create an NFT client-side before deciding where to host it.

This would also be useful as if this works in the browser, it will likely work in alternative runtimes such as Deno.

I wonder if instead of building an alternative version atop BrowserFS, it might make sense to re-write it as to not depend on a file system? Perhaps a more abstract memory model would be useful?
