I'm simply wondering - how in general html/js applications would work with multiple monitors.

A typical set-up at work (game studio) is 2-3 monitors for artists/level builders. We had to write a new docking system for Qt5, since the existing did not allow to dock outside windows to others (or tab in them) - e.g. bit like Visual Studio docking (but not there yet)



I'm working on a project that's big into this. I extended dockspawn to support popout windows and give a breakout editor feel.

The window you popout can still communicate with its opener until you refresh or navigate away from that page. It's not ideal, but it's the best you can do without using something like signalr or sockets.io to join everything together.
