Isn't this the same as you have for web, but with a much smaller set of browsers to support? Ie if you're doing a web app anyway, you need to solve that problem.
- rathboma 4y agoMost quality electron apps are NOT web apps. Beekeeper Studio included. It's a full desktop app in all terms, everything is local, no remote asset loading or anything like that. For folks turning web apps into desktop apps, sure it doesn't matter as much, but a real desktop app is way more integrated and feature-full.
- klabb3 4y agoYeah. Totally respect the approach. But what I mean is that the practice of making browser compatible web apps is well established so it isn't necessarily a deal breaker to have a couple of different rendering engines. I can count on one hand the few discrepancies I've found when using Tauri.
