Sciter MapboxSciter 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.

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 / 5 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 / 5 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 / about 1 year ago
> I'm convinced that using an embedded browser engine to render app UI is the future. Sciter exists: https://sciter.com/ And it indeed is great for UI. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
I think Sciter is probably the better comparison: https://sciter.com/ It is a ground-up implementation of HTML and CSS rendering. IIRC it used to have its own programming language but now uses JS. Iโve long been interested in this kind of thing but havenโt actually played with Sciter in depth. Used to be that the licensing was a concern but looking at the site now it seems the terms have changed to be much more... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
MapBox[0] does a good job. I donโt think it has a public interface, though. Itโs really a developer resource. [0] https://mapbox.com. - Source: Hacker News / 26 days ago
Yeah domain knowledge/network is definitely needed, I am working with a friend who has that, it's a must in this field because it's almost set in the stone age. Google maps was crazy expensive I went with Mapbox[1] for now which seems to have enough features and is less expensive. [1] https://mapbox.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

The location and weather panel has a live map displayed. Well, it won't for you, unless you grab a free API key from mapbox.com and paste it in the 1st global. Source: over 3 years ago
If you want to show polygons it is a bit more difficult. With the above map functions you can create a Choropleth map by using predefined regions (like countries, states etc.). But for custom polygons it won't work. You can either use ArcGIS Online in combination with the ArcGIS Maps for Power BI viz or use the Mapbox Visual function (you need to install this one first by pressing "Get more visuals"). You can...
