   A very lightweight alternative to electronJS or NWJS

   I have previously created small desktop apps in electron and NW. These were functionally strong, but extremely large and had long load times. With neutralino JS I was able to create the same tools with less effort (both in creation and compilation). I was able to reduce the size of the tools from >300 MB to under 3 MB. Neutralino JS is clearly the better choice for me.

   🏁 Competitors: Electron, NW.js

   👍 Pros:    Very lightweight|Easy to use

   👎 Cons:    Documentation could be stronger|Limited functionality, at the moment

• Show HN: Pywebview 5

  We tried using pywebview for a cross-platform desktop app when it was version 3.x and some of the features were limited, especially when it came to systray interactions. Will have to try it out again. In the end, for that specific project, we ended up settling on NeutralinoJS. Wails was another big contender but due to limited GoLang resources in-house, we decided not to use it. Reference: https://neutralino.js.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• This year in Servo: over 1000 pull requests and beyond

  There's always https://neutralino.js.org/ which uses native WebView components to keep itself rather smaller than Electron. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Suggestions for a framework to build a personal desktop or browser app

  I've been drawn to NeutralinoJS as it looks like it will do what I want, but I'm willing to hear some other recommendations and maybe tutorials on how to do the objectively simple things I've outlined above. Source: 10 months ago

  Doing some research about Photino, I also found Tauri and Neutralinojs. Source: about 1 year ago

• Is it possible to create a twine game that does not use a browser?

  Yes. You need a wrapper for the game though. Something like https://neutralino.js.org/ should be enough. Source: about 1 year ago

• Design Systems with Web Components

  I was recently able to sit down with some of the core members of Ionic, who also created Stencil a toolchain for building Design Systems and Progressive Web Apps. We talked at great length how typically companies are approaching Ionic from a Design Team and need help building components. As a developer I wanted to talk about the Web Components that are used within the Design System first. There was a decent amount... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• Turning HTML, CSS, JS project into an app

  Look into Ionic Framework https://ionicframework.com/ or Cordova. They might be overkill for what you’re trying to do, but they allow you to create cross-platform apps via html/css/js. Source: 5 months ago

• Getting Started with PayloadCMS & Vue JS

  Ionic Framework UI Components are used to build a website and then a mobile application is built using Ionic Capacitor. Ionic UI components are not required but are used for UX. The vue js code presented here will work fine in a separate application. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Building a Game with Phaser

  Welcome to Part Two of this four-part series on building a mobile game using open source technologies. We'll be using Phaser, along with Ionic, Capacitor, and Vue. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Building a Mobile Game with Phaser and Ionic Vue: Part One

  Turns out, it's easier than I expected! Thanks to Phaser, along with Ionic, Capacitor, and Vue, I was able to get a mobile game up and running on an iOS device working only a few hours here and there over two weeks. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago
