Essentially the same html/css rendering of Firefox or Chromium, still able to access the www, but with javascript fully removed for another language that can be interpreted - like python or lua. Is this feasible?

    But that was something that had to be installed on the system

    That was only initially true, by the end of its life it was a default component in some major browsers. Such as chrome and internet explorer.

    And prior to that it frequently came preinstalled by the manufacturer.

    But with all that said, I suspect we’ve missed the intent of the previous comment. To illustrate that none of the alternative means to run code in a web browser has worked out.

    And with that said due to market momentum (like how so many apps are electron based) I would expect JavaScript to outlive C++ haha.
