Summary

Arcan is a browser design approach prioritizing networked applications from the outset, moving away from the traditional browser model of linked documents. It envisions the document evolving into an executable format. Clients using simpler viewers like Smash can now opt-in to have the Arcan functionality hosted by a directory server, making the client application very lightweight. Furthermore, event handlers for file operations (list, download, upload) can now be connected to an external resolver.
