I think solely focusing on usability for “power-users” single page makes sense. Nevertheless, I think web design seems to prefer many pages though I don’t know if that’s driven by user-friendliness or driving up the “click-through” rate.

I don’t know if you’re into this, but this would be a perfect project to learn a new language or framework.

Do you mean RTSP? Camera: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086L8TWM5?psc=1

Also use Motion with post-Motion capture alerts sent via XMPP. Got the family on XMPP so it works out.

Not answering your question, BUT I went with POE IP camera in the end. They one I got form Amazon has an IR blaster and filter so it can see in black and white at night. No good Open-source HW options for that as far as I’m aware. Access via an RTSP on VLC or MPV. I use motion to access web streams and motion detection

I use sway or i3 compositor to launch various streaming sites in Chrome or Firefox in kiosk mode. Also Kodi and Steam. I have shortcuts for these mapped to function keys on a combo keyboard touchpad. Works well as support for streaming services in Kodi is not comprehensive
