Motivation

Sending API requests directly from the client would reduce the load on the server and enable static hosting under the constraint that users always need to bring their own API key and the API provider allows CORS requests. This might even enable hosting a public instance.

Scope

Requests to API providers allowing CORS requests are made directly from the client if an API key is provided, rather than passing through an interactive server.

Options

It might be possible to run an instance of the server in a web worker, along with some middleware that filters for requests containing an API key.
