so I wouldn't have to worry about various electron app packages shipping with versions of Chromium from three years ago?
- flohofwoe 6y agoThe downside is that as the application developer you no longer can control the browser version your code is running on, so you may need different code paths for WebKit vs Edge, or old vs new browser versions, but this is the same problem normal webpages have to deal with. But at least you can call out into native code and native operating system APIs, unlike "real" web applications.
