What rendering engine does it use? Project name suggests Electron, but they never mention it > The current Electrobun Playground app is 50.4MB in size (most of this is the bun runtime) Seems to be more than just bun runtime. | |||||||||||||||||

Electron is not a rendering engine. It’s an application bundler, which itself bundles Chromium and NodeJS. This project uses native web views, like Tauri. They wrote that they might provide the option of bundling your own engine, ie like Electron, which I personally think it’s a bad idea. Tauri proved that you don’t need it. But now that you mention it, agreed that 50MB is a lot.. maybe just standard JS dep bloat? That could be clarified. | |||||||||||||||||
