I don't understand why this headless browser should be in Elixir and why it should communicate via disterl/BERT? Although disterl is native to Erlang/OTP/BEAM VM, it should be implemented in native rendering engines.

Don't get me wrong, I prefer writing in Elixir to JS/TS or native (Swift/Kotlin etc.)

Why do you still call it SSR if it is rendered on the client device?

Is there a long-form article about this project, preferably with visuals/diagrams?
