Not quite sure where to put this thread...
I'm looking to replace display based solutions with an ESP8266. The idea is to create web-graphs or tables that look similar to how it is done on a graphical display through the use of pixel coordinates, lines and text. This can then be displayed on any browser.
For example, something that would draw on a .bmp file in the sale way as an ILI9341 libraries.
This is how my project looks like
I'm wondering if someone has attempted this or if you could educate me on possible ways to do so?
Much appreciated for any guidance!

Oh, might as well go here I suppose. 
Happy to change. I suppose its a hybrid between a display and creating an image that can then be processed for HTML use, so wondering if this was done before?
Maybe something like this:
Instead of HTML this project seems to use its own format and interacts not with a browser but a client application.
Edit:
U8g2 includes rendering into a bitmap (instead of a GLCD), but it is not actively supported:
