no. In order to do that, they would have to release the IE html rendering engine (i think they call it Trident) to open-source, and bind it to the nodejs engine

This(WinJS) is basically a library that wraps UI components in JS, CSS and HTML DOM.. its sugar for baked and easy to use UI components (in theory in any html rendering engine)
- derefr 13y agoI didn't mean implementation-wise, I meant in practice: they're both technologies that allow you to ship a zipped blob of HTML+CSS+JS that presents itself as a program, and has additional native APIs, beyond the regular HTML5 ones, exposed to the Javascript engine.
- oscargrouch 13y ago> has additional native APIs, beyond the regular HTML5 ones I think maybe in windows you have native bindings to windows-specific api's.. but whats is shipped here is only the UI + databindings, mvc voodoo for plain HTML5.. for aditional native api's exposed to the javascript engine, you will need something like node-webkit.. This use nodejs just to compile giving a minified js + css styles.. so it's more like bootstrap or ionic framework
