Have you considered transitioning to something that uses the system WebView like Tauri or NeutralinoJS? If you did, what were the blockers?
- justindeguzman 4y agoWe started building the app about two years ago where these frameworks were a lot less mature (and I still think Electron is the most battle-tested today). If we were to start over, I'd definitely consider Tauri or using Rust directly for a lot of the app. I suspect over time we'll slowly transition parts of the app to more native code.
- Klonoar 4y agoSystem Webviews are not a replacement for what Electron provides. I will, once again, link to the comment on this very site from a Slack engineer who explained why they moved from system provided Webviews to Electron: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18763449 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18763449
