What is the best way to implement remote control of the program?

Hello everybody! In general, the story is like this. For the diploma, they gave the topic "remote control of a CAD system (SolidWorks) using the Internet."
As far as I understand, you need to create a site where the remote control itself will be performed, i.e. entrance to the site, authentication, and then, roughly speaking, an image appears with Solid, which works on a remote computer, on which you can actually work. But the catch is that access should not be completely to the remote computer, but only to the program i.e. to Solid.
In general, you can do anything, not only the site, but also the application, in any language.
Advice is needed on how to implement it, in what language and how difficult is it?

The way is simpler: take some RDP client and finish it so that only one window remains accessible. Or, on the host system, run solidworks from a separate user who will have access only to solidworks.
But if you do something good, not for show, then you will have to think carefully about the main problem:
with RDP access, you will roughly get a picture from a remote computer. And with each shift / rotation of the model, almost the entire screen will be redrawn. It's like PPC slow. In LAN, more or less, but through the Internet you will inevitably get very noticeable and unpleasant lags.
For good, it would be necessary to find out if there is some kind of API in solidworks, or write some kind of hook that will intercept the 3D model, transfer it over the network, and draw it directly on the client via webGL or something like that. And there will be a lot of work.
