Use Puppeteer (headless Chromium) to render p5.js animations server-side. The gl npm package failed to compile on Node 25, so we use a real browser context which guarantees correct WebGL rendering for all p5 features. Key design decisions: - Serialize animation render functions and eval them in the browser - Polyfill esbuild's __name helper for browser context compatibility - Patch transpiled import references (import_utils.X -> global X) - Inject utility functions (getScaleFactor) as browser globals - Reuse a singleton browser instance across render requests Replaces gl dependency with puppeteer. All 5 animations verified: rotating-sphere, inside-sphere, low-poly-sphere, pyramid, 360-spin.
