Vebview.JS
| Works Everywhere | Small App Bundles, Really |
|---|---|
| Applications written with Vebview.JS can work any modern PC runs x64 and even move with any storage device without data loss¹. | App bundles size is lower than 1MB, smaller 100+ times than NW.JS or Electron |
| Powered by Web Technologies | Free & Open Source |
| Create applications with HTML, CSS or JS | No cost, Not everything good is paid |
| Native API | Built on V |
| APIs that allow move beyond the Web borders | One of the Safe and Performance languages |
| Multiple backend support | Browser API Pollfills |
| Localhost, file protocol, custom backend (php, ruby, python, etc.) and cloud (such as from a website) | Port your Web App or PWA into an executable easily. |
¹:Except writing/reading files specific locations, deleting data files and using browser based storage (like localstorage)
Roadmap & What's implemented?
You can learn from support.md
How to compile?
No require Administrator permission or Root permission. YOU SHOULD NOT RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR OR ROOT
Linux
$ export V_LOC=/path/to/dir/v
$ ./linux.sh
Windows
> set V_LOC=C:/path/to/dir/v
> set W10_SDK=C:/path/to/dir/sdk :: for example; C:/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Windows\ Kits/10/Include/10.0.22621.0
> ./windows.cmd

Known Bugs
- On Windows
vebview.window.move can't move window to correct position when monitor scaled. WindowWidth/window.innerWidth gives display scale, (moveX,moveY)*thisValue could be fix that, but not implemented yetThat fixed temporarily with disabling enable_dpi_awareness. That causes blurry window while enabled dpi system-wide.
- On Linux
- There're no known bug :)
- On App Bundles
- Storage is temporary, can not save data. Causes write permission. (Windows & Linux)
- SetProgress is not work. Causes write permission. (Linux)
If you find a bug, open new issue.
