Chrome 157 introduces HTML-in-Canvas, which lets you render actual HTML elements inside a canvas, including WebGL and WebGPU scenes.

What’s really cool is that these elements remain interactive. You get things like text selection, form controls, accessibility, and CSS styling without having to recreate everything manually in canvas.

This opens up some interesting possibilities for 3D applications, games, and complex web interfaces. The video below does a great job showing why this is such a big deal.
