Consider a port away from Electron

Open OrangeDrangon opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

There is an interesting new library called tauri that serves a similar purpose as a electron without packaging an entire browser instead relying on system provided renders like webkitgtk on linux. This would reduce memory usage and app size dramatically. Work on this is currently blocked by tauri not supporting injecting their ipc commands into external urls. There is work being done on this so that it will be possible in the future.

I was just thinking this! If I have some spare time, I might just tinker around and see what I can do.
