The Roblox Desktop App Experience(for macOS btw)

1

Website.com

Now the experience of going into game is incredibly seamless, I know that that it's just redirecting to a custom URI( custom URIs are custom prefixes like https:// but your own custom one, like roblox:// where they can just redirect to that with params, so for example, roblox://game?=game&user=user) but damn this is so seamless. Here's an example.

WebKit

Now for user profiles and most of the things, it opens a webview. Now a webview is just using an existing browser engine like ,  to open a small browser window within your app. That makes it easier for you to leave things but you have extreme inconsistencies, that small chat popup is the first one, but since this is in beta I won't complain too much.

Apple Swift

It kinda looks like the Windows app/mobile app upscaled for desktop. Now I don't know what language this is written in but if I can guess it's written in  by looking at info.plist in the Application Package.

Electron

I was guessing this would be written in some shit web framework like , that's basically bundling chrome and node.js into one application and then putting your website's code in it, like Discord. They just took the main website's code, added some spice to it and then run it inside chrome. But it isn't.So kudos to the devs for not actually being lazy and starting from scratch.
