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.
Based on our record, Sciter should be more popular than NeutralinoJS. It has been mentiond 67 times since March 2021. We are tracking product recommendations and mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you identify which product is more popular and what people think of it.
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

Yes. You need a wrapper for the game though. Something like https://neutralino.js.org/ should be enough. Source: about 1 year ago
> wondering if css and svg could be used as abstraction over graphics and UI libraries There's another project called Sciter that uses CSS to target native graphics libraries: https://sciter.com > I wonder how hard it was to implement css. I've heard it can be pretty complex. It was hard, but the biggest barrier is the obscurity of the knowledge. Text layout is the hardest, because working with glyphs and... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

Otherwise, if we have only retained mode as in browsers, we will need to modify the DOM heavily and create temporary elements for handles. [1] https://sciter.com. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
An embedded engine is also a much faster path to viable use cases. For example Sciter [1] has some degree of success despite implementing only a sane subset of the DOM API. It doesn't work well for general internet surfing, but when used as an UI library you just avoid the parts that don't work. 1: https://sciter.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
