A few services make data from bitcoin's p2p layer *available* to browsers, e.g. block explorers, some electrum servers (including esplora servers), and block-dn. But it'd be great if browsers could talk to *any* node instead of placing the load directly on those limited services.

On that note, did you know the websocat tool can expose any TCP port (including bitcoin's) as if it was a websocket port? Yep! It's got a built-in converter that will do the websocket handshake and then directly pipe TCP data to the browser. Consider running it on your node!
