• 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 / 8 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

• Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu

  I tried several over the years, specifically looking for a good out of the box experience, GUI-first usage, and one that's stable over time, and after upgrades. Zorin OS fit the bill the most. I think the landing page is good as well. https://zorin.com/os/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Introduction

  My first Linux distro was PopOS and It was a refreshing experience. It was really easy to install, use, and game on. I distro hopped a few times to see what other linux flavors are like.

• Manjaro is a free and open source Linux operating system that emphasizes privacy

  ZorinOS[0] is fantastic! I switched from Ubuntu too and it was surprising how polished ZorinOS was. Everything was super stable and in the last 2 years, it didn't break by itself, which I can't say the same for Ubuntu sadly. Linux Mint too is cool but the outdated UI is the only deal breaker for me. [0] - https://zorin.com/os. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago
