I've given RStudio as an example because is not platform dependent,
you can connect to the server from any web browser (tablet/phone,
android/windows/ios).
Well, gretl's graphical interface built on "gtk" is also
platform-independent, that's why there is gretl for Windows and on Mac.
But you're right that web technologies are much more widespread, and of
course the difference is especially visible on tablets and smartphones.
This would be a big leap forward for gretl in terms of user
friendliness and capabilities.
I don't really see this as a big advantage over the status quo, but I
agree that in theory it would be nice to be able to use a web browser as
a frontend. Somebody would have to develop this stuff, however, and IMO
it would be a lot of work... Also, if RStudio does this kind of thing
already, well that's great -- why not use that then?
