Speed and access. Being able to just bring it up in a browser would useful.
I use Kasm for this sort of thing, but it’s pretty slow at times.

What’s the advantage of this versus just running a graphical desktop and using VNC or something?

As ikidd mentioned, definitely speed and access. It’s just a react web-app. There’s no VM required, and it’s not streaming a video capture of a desktop. I’m actually amazed at how performant it is. It loads almost instantly, and feels like a regular desktop.
Even with all the windows open in the screenshot and streaming a transcoded video, it still uses less memory than a single open YouTube tab.
