  • Web Apps Are Better Than No Apps
    Microsoft has this on Windows: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/ Teams 2 is supposed to use it (and there's a couple smaller system apps that use it). - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
  • .NET desktop development, Desktop development with C++ or Universal Windows Platform development?
    I'd like to make my own Web Browser using the Microsoft Edge WebView2 that can also run on Windows 11 for Arm64. Source: 10 months ago
  • Perspective 2.0, Open Source WebAssembly-Powered BI
    Electron is going to kill the good performance gains of Perspective. Even if you have a fully beefed-up workstation, Electron is going to trigger the CPU fans. Electron is discouraged nowadays in favor of lightweight solutions like Sciter[0], Tauri[1] or even WebView2[2]. -- [0]: https://sciter.com/ [1]: https://tauri.app/ [2]: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
  • Why the New Microsoft Teams is the Ultimate Communication Tool for the Modern Workplace
    The above user is technically correct it is not Electron. It is a MS supported Chromium-baesd WebView program based on their Edge browser: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/. Source: about 1 year ago

  • Mimic Touch Bar screenshot functionality on non-touch bar M1 MacBook Pro
    If you want a fake (yet fully functional) touchbar on your screen, you could use something like: https://github.com/sindresorhus/touch-bar-simulator (I used that for a while on my 2017 mbp). Source: 12 months ago
  • Picture-in-picture for all videos that works on Safari 15 / Monterey?
    Baking soda or Fulifier would on most sites but not iPlayer apparently. However (without any need for an extension) I can use PIP on any compatible website via the button on my touchbar. Perhaps until you find an extension, use touch-bar-simulator? Source: over 1 year ago
  • Why does my new M1 Pro MacBook think it has a touch bar?
    Did you try a restart? It’s bizarre that’s it’s using so much virtual memory too. Only thing I could think of it virtual Touch Bar simulator, but I think you would probably know if you were using that lol. Is it possible there’s an app doing something similar? Also, side note, what do you use to rearrange your menu bar? It looks great. Source: over 2 years ago
