   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

• The tech stack behind InkRows

  Tailwind CSS keeps styling consistent and fast. The utility-first approach means I don't waste time naming classes or managing CSS organization. With the Vite integration and PostCSS transformations, the build stays lean. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Desktop apps for Windows XP in 2025

  Fortunately we have tools like PostCSS and Babel, that let you target your specific Browser version, and they'll do their best to transpile and polyfill your code to work with that version. This alone will do a lot of the heavy lifting for you if you are working with a lot of code. However, if you are just writing out a few HTML, CSS, and JS files, then that would be overkill and you can just figure out what code... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Improving Code Quality with Linting

  For example, linting CSS can be beneficial in cases where you need to support legacy browsers. Downgrading JavaScript is pretty common, but it's not always as simple for CSS. Using a linter allows you to be honest with yourself by flagging problematic lines that won't work in older environments, ensuring your pages look as good as possible for everyone. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Webpack Performance Tuning: Minimizing Build Times for Large Projects

  PostCSS is essential to the frontend ecosystem, with 69,473,603 downloads per week, it is bigger than all the above libraries mentioned, and has many features other than polyfilling, it is used by all the frameworks like Next.js, Svelte, Vue, and Tailwind under the hood. LightningCSS, created by the maintainer of another bundler Parcel, and written in Rust, is an excellent alternative. It provides all the... - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• Claude is an Electron App because we've lost native

  Https://neutralino.js.org/ But I think even there it’s possible to encounter platform-dependent bugs - starting from view issues (you know, different OS can use different browser engines) and up to those related to system APIs. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Electrobun: Cross-platform desktop applications written in TypeScript

  So is it a yet another webview-based framework like NeutralinoJS (https://neutralino.js.org), Electrino (https://github.com/pojala/electrino)? What's their advantage apart from using Bun instead of Node? For relly lightweight cross-platform desktop apps better use a non-webview-based native framework like Qt, GTK, wxWidgets or even recently released FLTK 1.4. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Writing GUI apps for Windows is painful

  I've been eyeing https://neutralino.js.org/ since if I'm going to make the app render right on browsers then relying on the same code via webviews likely isn't (much) more portability effort. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• 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 / over 2 years 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 / over 2 years ago
