    I checked out Assetto Corsa, and its way of implementing a modular UI. I found out it uses Python. I believe that Python will not only give us more options, but also be much faster than the current HTML UI.

    Would that mean that the UI would finally be running more than 15 fps?

    Potentially.

    But it also means we can port apps from Assetto Corsa.

    Python is not a UI, it's a programming language.

    Yes, I do realize this.

    What I am saying is if support for Python is added, it could really help out the UI in terms of speed.

    I mean, it KINDA could, but the devs can optimize the already existing UI too instead of changing it to python. If they wanted to go all out they could just go with C or C++.

    Besides, its not HTML itself, its the current design. The previous navigator UI did not lag everything, the current one does.
