I’m as anti-Electron as the next person, but my arguments against it are due to the bloat and disrespectful resource usage of using an entire web browser to show local app UI.
But if what you need is an actual, literal web browser, then I’m not sure I see why this is a bad choice.
- Kalium 4y agoAs per their own documentation, Electron is not a web browser and should not be treated like one. I understand that some may experience differences of opinion, but I regard it as sufficient warning when the developers of something warn that it should not be used as a web browser: https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/security https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/security
- kiawe_fire 4y agoThank you for the informative reply - I stand completely corrected. I can definitely see now why this would be problematic.
