Is that really possible? I feel like it would only work with considerable engineering effort, and even then, probably only if the bundled Chrome instances were all exactly the same version.
- michaelmrose 7y agoThis is literally how every gui library on planet earth works. Developers all build against a particular recent released version with all apps in the system expected to build against a small number of recent versions. If this is hard maybe its because the browser isn't a very good runtime to build against.
- mikepurvis 7y agoRight, but those systems are set up from the get-go with that usage pattern in mind, where you have an expectation of ABI compatibility and the underlying libraries as a shared resource. The expectation with Electron has always been that you bundle a copy of it with your app, so that you're always targeting exactly that version.
