Technology agnostic page editing and rendering

A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11886532B1) outlines a method and system for rendering web pages using a dynamic set of renderers identified by users through an agnostic page editor. The method involves obtaining a meta model representing content and layout agnostic to specific renderers, rendering the page using the identified renderer, and sending the rendered content for presentation via the agnostic page editor. Users can request modifications to the page layout or content, add or remove renderers from the set, and view the page using different renderers simultaneously for multiple visitors.
The system described in the patent includes processors and memory storing instructions to perform operations such as obtaining the meta model, rendering the page, and sending the content for presentation. Users can generate modification requests through the agnostic page editor, which can include creating or modifying pages, changing content, or adding/removing renderers. The system allows for the modification of meta models based on user requests, rendering pages using client-side or server-side renderers, and presenting pages to visitors via browsers. Additionally, the system can identify the appropriate renderer to use based on various factors like request information, client details, or domain, ensuring efficient rendering and presentation of web pages tailored to user preferences.
