WRP - Web Rendering Proxy

A HTTP proxy server that allows to use historical and obsolete web browsers on the modern web. It works by rendering the web page in to a GIF image associated with clickable imagemap of original web links.

You are looking at a GoLang / CDP branch of WRP.

This code is under active development and not fully usable yet.

Done so far

• basic browser-in-browser mode
• screenshot and serve image+map via CDP
• gif with Floyd–Steinberg dithering
• multiple concurent client support
• resolve relative links
• paginated scrolling
• google search on input not starting with ^http
• ISMAP, although for a redirect to work -i flag must be specified otherwise http-equiv refresh will be used and/or link provided
• headed mode and chromedp debug output

Todo

• configurable color palete and quantization
• real http proxy support
• padded box model coordinates
• better http server shutdown
