Sciter is maybe close:
https://sciter.com/ https://sciter.com/
It allows you to make desktop apps with HTML/CSS, but it has its own custom engine that doesn't support all the quirks the web does.
- ktpsns 7y agoInteresting. What's the name of the engine, and is it open source?

- JasonFruit 7y agoIt has scripting available in a JavaScript-like language. I'm not able to tell yet how mature it is as I've only done a brief test.
- t0astbread 7y agoThis looks interesting but the code samples look like they include non-standard features (if I'm not mistaken). Is this compatible out of the box with (most) modern web apps? Because that's the real value of Electron.

It uses its own JS-like scripting language, and custom CSS 3 support. A couple of months ago the author suggested on Reddit he might start working on an Electron alternative that used Node + Sciter. https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/a8vkzm/sciternode_as_an_alternative_to_electron/ece54af/ https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/a8vkzm/scitern...
