can we run our applets back again?

It'd be nice to have full browser support for applets, but with a restricted classpath that only contains the browser APIs (DOM, local storage, etc). It'd be something else these days for sure

There is at least one way to do it: https://cheerpj.com/cheerpj-applet-runner/

oh shit no, its the other way around: run wasm in the jvm

that's sort of what graaal is supposed to do
