I love this. Built a little synth toy app a few months ago and was pleasantly surprised with web midi. Not sure what I'd use web serial for... Funny to think we could basically port windows kernel debugger to JS though

I'm very glad to see recent developments to get WebSerial available on Chrome Android. It would be nice if Google finished the set by shipping WebBluetooth on Linux. I think that and then just WebNFC on desktop in general are the final missing pieces.
