Got curious of the idea of a TI-84 Plus CE webpage reader where you can insert webpages from a computer into it. I don’t expect anything fancy though, besides text and images. Although I’m not familiar with coding, this doesn’t seem to be too hard to create (especially compared to the many programs people have already created here), which makes me wonder if it already exists.
Should be pretty easy--maybe you could start programming in C and make that as your very first project! Surprising no one's done it before...

I mean if your calculator has enough storage and you can somehow program an html reader then yeah that would be "not that hard"
In case you didn't notice some responses are kind of highlighting that this is not something that's straightforward at all - it takes a lot of resources to parse HTML, let alone the plethora of other technologies that are involved in web pages.
The closest would be something like this screen mirroring project I guess? https://www.cemetech.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17714&start=0

Better idea: Make your own format instead, as stated, html needs a lot of resources. Also, make a game before you try something like that.

lwIP's code contains an HTTP client that can send requests for websites.

If I'm not mistaken, you would still have to write an app to translate the resultant page components into something viewable.
