DevDock keeps local projects in one sidebar and gives each project a focused workspace for its overview, commands, run history, databases, security checks, settings, and tools. The Today view surfaces recent projects and saved daily workflows. Inside a project, DevDock connects registered folders, detected technologies, Docker and Git state, database operations, local security findings, and the actions used to get back to work.

Sciter is recommended for developers who need to build GUI applications that are cross-platform and want to leverage their web development skills. It's especially useful for those looking to create lightweight applications without the overhead of more extensive frameworks like Electron. It is also suitable for developers interested in rapid prototyping and creating custom UI/UX solutions.
DevDock's answer:
DevDock brings local software projects, saved commands, Docker environments, database operations, project health, and security checks into one Windows desktop workspace. Each project has a focused view for its overview, commands, run history, databases, security checks, settings, and tools, while the Today view surfaces recent projects and saved daily workflows.
DevDock's answer:
DevDock is a fit for developers who switch between local codebases and want repeatable project context in one place. It connects registered folders, detected technologies, saved commands, Git and Docker state, database operations, local security findings, and project health checks without requiring repositories to be moved into one folder or uploaded to a service.
DevDock's answer:
DevDock is primarily for Windows developers who switch between local codebases, work across frontend, backend, mobile, and infrastructure repositories, or want repeatable local setup and project workflows without uploading source code.

That's what Sciter does - https://sciter.com/ - it just gives you a lightweight HTML / CSS / Javascript "webview" engine. Like you pointed out, that shoudl be enough. But corporates want a "webview" that is an OS so that they can do everything with Javascript on it (hence why embedded Chrome with NodeJS is so popular). - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
If I was to spend a trillion tokens on a barely working browser I would have started with the source code of Sciter [0] instead. I really like the premise of an electron alternative that compiles to a 5MB binary, with a custom data store based on DyBASE [1] built into the front end javascript so you can just persist any object you create. I was ready to build software on top of it but couldn't get the basic... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
There is also https://sciter.com/ that the author tried to find finance to make it opensource but couldn't find enough supporters. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
