I got to see my friend @Snugug at IO (we get to work together now!) and he asked me some questions about WebMCP. I would say I'm sorry about the pun at the end but of course I'm not.

HTML canvas has always been a black box to the browser, but not anymore. The HTML-in-Canvas API lets you integrate real DOM elements directly into the canvas, making them fully searchable, accessible, natively translatable, and inspectable. Fuse shaders and semantics to build new UI, eliminating the need for separate DOM overlays → goo.gle/4gal7xc The web is about to get a whole lot more whimsical and we can't wait to see it 🎨

Start using the Prompt API even when it isn't natively supported yet. Our experimental polyfill uses Transformers.js with Gemma 3 1B by default, or you can seamlessly swap to cloud backends. Just import prompt-api-polyfill.js and start prompting. goo.gle/4uG8sqw

The HTML-in-Canvas API is the bridge that gives you the best of HTML with the power and expressivity of canvas. By placing HTML inside the <canvas> element and synchronizing its transform, you ensure the content remains fully interactive, and that all browser integrations function automatically → goo.gle/4wNDpuh #GoogleIO

What does this actually mean for your canvas? You get seamless text layout, native copy and paste, and full exposure to the accessibility tree. Users can even use find-in-page or translate text directly within your WebGL textures and 3D scenes.
