title: Call method and access properties in a client side app from a web browser
body: <p>We have a solution that deals with devices on Windows and would like to make calls to certain components of it from webbrowsers (Edge, chrome, firefox) by using javascript so this will be done client side.
  We used to do it by using activex but since this technology works pretty much only for Iexplorer and now with modern browsers being depricated, is not an option any more. 
  Our solution is Java based and also some C#. </p>
  
  <p>Does anybody know how to do this? Thanks a lot. </p>
