I would have loved to stick to JSON and not HTML so I can deploy frames on AWS / GCP etc without running vercel type app.

JSON would have some nice benefits and is something we'd consider in a v2 but not seeing how that relates to deploying to Vercel vs AWS / GCP? you can deploy anywhere you can deploy a node app?

I could use API Gateways to return static JSON values ( or from S3 or similar cloud storage ). I believe its possible but did not check. Would be nice that users can upload their images and pin that carousel to their channel / profile.

Of course one can return HTML , hand writing JSON vs Meta Tags, JSON is easier. HTML has so much repetition of <meta> ... and then "type", in JSON that's concise and clean. Also you can update or override JSON property way easily because it's object like properties, for HTML that's not the case. I am not insisting or asking to change immediately. HTML was chosen I believe because OG / RDF / OWL parser exists and they can be used to pull first page i.e. GET /frame/URL easily and can be embedded anywhere.

Html is more complex than JSON to be honest for avg developer. { buttons : [ {} ] , image, input } is pretty much it. It's not about can or can't , its the choice that is friendly to adapt the tech better. Most implementations take JSON that converts to HTML which gets converted back to JSON by Frame Proxy in Warpcast. So do you need such complexity ?
