Just an example why that happens: Sciter got flexes and grid 10 years ago as they are the must for desktop UI. Web platform got them practically only in couple of last years. And it is simply to late to change anything - many customers rely on them. But its quite easy to solve this problem using @media sciter {...} sections. Features are easily transformable: https://terrainformatica.com/w3/flex-layout/flex-vs-flexbox.htm https://terrainformatica.com/w3/flex-layout/flex-vs-flexbox....
Same is about script. classes, namespaces, symbols, async/await were in Sciter 7 years ago - I cannot change too much there. Support of existing customers is very critical for me.
> how many people maintain this project?
I did Sciter by myself only. Beside of customers there are three independent developers (Russia, Brazil and France) that requested and have access to Sciter source tree. I am accepting patches from them and customers. 3 AV vendors independently did security audit of the code. Yet Symantec (Norton Antivirus) provided Accessibility support implementation as for them Section 508 was the must.
