It's pretty simple to make.

It was saved thanks to the work of Sir Robert Risson [0]
As an example, I speak Mandarin and can't read/write (much) Chinese characters as I spoke it at home while growing up in Australia. So, I can imagine there'd be quite a lot who are in a similar situation to me but with Cantonese who would benefit from this (not just as a learning tool).
I've been using the Zhongwen[0] browser extension to "read" websites that have Chinese characters for many years as hovering over Chinese characters will display a popup with the pronunciation ping yin. It may not be the speediest way of understanding a block of Chinese text.
I could imagine someone creating a browser extension that would replace the font used on the website(s) with the Cantonese Visual Font when the extension is enabled.
Came across it while following the development and distribution of iSH (https://ish.app/), which has now made it into the main app store.
Prior to publishing to AltStore, iSH was only available on Test Flight, which has a limitation on the number of users who can join (10,000). So they'd periodically have to kick inactive users off the TestFlight so others could try it.

I think EdgeHTML will continue to be used by Microsoft for various scenarios, just not in their Edge browser. These scenarios include usage in WinForms and WPF apps https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2018/05/09/modern-webvie...
Pretty simple.
