You don't need file system access or automatic update, blah blah, it would be a huge waste to ship your app with >100MB of Chromium and V8 in it.<p>> In fact, this application only uses 0-3% CPU and the bundle size is >800KB on macOS.<p>~800Kb is really nice leap from 100M !
Inspired by this I did a little proof of concept in Go: <a href="https://github.com/imdario/gonban" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/imdario/gonban</a>
Getting multiple errors on both repos. OP fork of webview is getting a linker error in my windows 10 and the elm project doesn't build past elm-make, the webpack fails later...
