On PC it's a python dependency hell but someone managed to package it in self contained JS code that works offline once it loaded the model? How is that done?

ONNXRuntime makes it fairly easy, you just need to provide a path to the ONNX file, give it inputs in the correct format, and use the outputs. The ONNXRuntime library handles the rest. You can see this in the main.js file: https://github.com/clowerweb/kitten-tts-web-demo/blob/main/m...

Plus, Python software are dependency hell in general, while webpages have to be self-contained by their nature (thank god we no longer have Silverlight and Java applets...)
