The list of powerful APIs that the Chrome team wants to safely expose to web apps via Project Fugu is incredibly exciting. From a security perspective, I'd much rather "install" a web app that runs within the browser sandbox and must explicitly ask to read/write files and use hardware features than an Electron app which has free reign over my system. The status quo where everyone makes an Electron app just to get a dock icon and show notifications is unsustainable. Note: this Project Fugu effort is very different from the FLoC [1] and Privacy Sandbox [2] efforts from Google, which seem to be more about preserving Google's ad business than about privacy. Project Fugu is about making the web competitive with native apps, which is an unequivocal win for users, web developers, and open systems.
