@mondo, is the advantage really gone? Seems like cutting out the browser would eliminate a lot of overhead.

- girvo 11y agoThe browser isn't really cut-out, but that's not to say the the performance isn't better. In fact, with a lot of the "browser" side stuff, like bookmarks, extensions, etc. gone there is performance gains to be had using node-webkit/Electron, etc. in my experience using them. It also allows you to get around some security contexts that running untrusted code in a browser environment requires.
