I see.
I meant more that Electron would add ~/.electron/chrome-66.so, and guarantee that it will be there or downloaded if required by an Electron app.
Then, all apps that are built against Chrome 66 would all use a single ~/.electron/chrome-66.so
- untog 8y agoEh, that would save in hard disk space but that's hardly the main concern. What you'd actually want is the ability to use the same Webview runtime across processes, which this wouldn't allow. Android does it, but I don't know if it's possible on desktop OSes (easily)
- nkkollaw 8y agoAh, I see what the problem is, then. I've always thought it was something they were going to do sooner or later. Electron gets a lot of hate, while I think it's a great tech and 90% of the apps I use are available just because of its existence, since I'm on Linux and they wouldn't bother porting them if it wasn't made easy by Electron.
