If I were to make it from the ground up, there would be no such thing as a browser. The whole OS is the browser. You can "add it to your home screen" or search it in the "appstore" kinda like a PWA. But one thing that will stay are different search engines to index the data and display relievet info similar to the Android slices API. Since there is no browser there will be no single language that the "sites" will have to be made in. So you can use what ever the hell you want, and all those languages and runtime will be updated at the OS level and will have a "manifest.json" to check for compatibility.
