What I'd really like to see with CEF et al, is JS being dropped, in favor of directly controlling the DOM from the host language. Then we could, for example, write a Rust (or Kotlin, Zig, Haskell, etc) desktop application that simply directly manipulated the DOM, and had it rendered by a HTML+CSS layout engine. Folks could then write a React-like framework for that language (to help render & re-render the DOM in... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
> I hope Electron/CEF die soon, and people get back to building applications that don't consume hundreds of megabytes of RAM to render a hello world. Web technologies are fine, but what we really need is some kind of lightweight browser which allows you to use HTML/CSS/JS, but with far lower memory usage. I found https://ultralig.ht/ which seems to be exactly what I am looking... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
I'm curious if the project will be open-source or do you have plans to go the Awesomium/Ultralight route with both open/closed sources and volume licenses? Or do you plan to offer commercial support services like other open source software? Source: 10 months ago
I’m not tied to any language, but it needs to be able to wrap a c++ library. I started with .NET 7 MAUI - no linux support & very mobile focused. Tried out Electron. Wins on ease and usability, but has massive overhead. (Basic “Hello world” executable compiled to over 200mb) I then discovered Ultralight (https://ultralig.ht/). Big win on size, but was last updated 3 years ago. Source: 10 months ago

The YouTube app on Apple TV is absolutely atrocious. I can’t believe either Apple or Google think it’s acceptable — it must be one of the most-used apps on tvOS, and is easily the worst I’ve ever come across. It seems to be built with Cobalt [1], so it’s basically HTML5, pretending to be a native app. A short list of flaws which have infuriated me for months: • Scrolling is completely broken. Scroll down a... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
Cobalt is this: https://cobalt.foo/. I believe that it practically replaces a browser and has small footprint, so you can use it to run web apps on devices that can't run Chrome and thus can't have PWAs via browser. Source: almost 3 years ago
