RIP, Java applets.
Since there still are many situations where the superior Java
performance would be helpful (large structures; surfaces; complex Jmol
scripts that are running about 50 times slower in the Javascript
version) it would still be good to have a Java version with the
flexibility of the applet to build customized user interfaces.
I am wondering how much effort it would be to extend the applet by a
HTML/CSS rendering and Javascript engine like it is provided by systems
like 'JavaFX - WebView Component
(https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/api/toc.htm
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2438201/pure-java-html-viewer-renderer-for-use-in-a-scrollable-pane),
Oracle Nashorn
(http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/java/jf14-nashorn-2126515.html),
and HtmlUnit (http://htmlunit.sourceforge.net/).
I woud guess one of the critical points would be how much of the
Javascript/Applet communication would still be possible in such application.

Rolf
