Is it not a web view? With nodejs capabilities from the “backend” half of the app for normal desktop app filesystem access etc?

If a Web View is not provided by a browser then it's an already installed browser then it's as they say "web rendering engine" that they ship along.

I'm trying to argue that it should already be available via Firefox, Chromium, etc on desktop.

  • Firefox doesn't release a webview engine but if they did I wonder if Linux distros would use it.
