    Nice website for sure. Still no forgiving for bringing electron to the world.

      It is a marvelous thing. A beautiful app platform. Suddenly, one day, I was no longer Linux user without app. Linux app was standard. Everybody has Linux app. I had dual-boot Linux computer to play Valorant on Windows and to live normal life on Linux. And I use Mac at work. And it is all glorious because I no longer think about which is which. And there are people who are saying it is not amazing, but it is. I can hit Ctrl-R and the application refreshes. What an astounding tool.

      For me the great app platforms:

      * the terminal

      * the iPhone/Android

      * the web

      And suddenly, the web is brought to the desktop and it is cross-platform. Everything is here on my Linux. It is the Year of the Linux Desktop and everyone is complaining about web platform. But it is web platform that has brought it here. Praise be the forces that made this happen. This man has a great website, and if he has made Electron then he is always welcome to me.

      I can’t find anything better than Electron/Tauri for building cross-platform desktop apps. The browser engine is quite efficient and performant for building complex interfaces

        You have an interesting definition of "efficient and performant".

      Electron was too good when I first saw it, and gave the "Javascript everywhere" for the desktop apps. Then quickly felt like a bloatware.

        Like it or not, it was a significant achievement

    Fyi, autoplays sound. Generally an unacceptable UI decision imho.

      There is a button ”Enter muted” right below enter

        I didn't click anything, the sound just started playing while there was a loading animation

          What browser are you using? IE6?

          Just kidding. But you must have clicked somewhere. Audio autoplay hasn't been a thing on the web for years (thankfully).

    Ah, the “good“ old times of interactive flash websites.

    I found myself inside a simulation simulating simulations of a simulation.

    And it was good.
