### What Gossip Isn't
Gossip doesn't use web technology (except for Websockets and HTTP fetch). There is no javascript. There is no HTML parsing. There is no HTML-based layout. There is no CSS. Because of this, there are no suprises. There are no XSS vulnerabilities. There are no CORS errors.
On the flip side, we have (currently) shitty fonts, no color emojis, and we render many frames per second which has a computation cost.
This is a trade off that works for the developer, who wants a reliable and secure client, not necessarily a flashy one.
