How is it more reliable than Tauri - aren't they both using the system webview?

Deno Desktop can bundle CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework) according to https://docs.deno.com/runtime/desktop/comparison

Deno desktop can use system web view OR embed CEF. Tauri is just system web view.

The benefit of Deno Desktop is it's like Tauri except for when you want it to be Electron???

		This is a feature many apps actually need. E.g. Tauri uses WebKitGTK on Linux, which has historically been slow, unstable, and frequently lagging behind the main WebKit project. This is enough of an issue that even Tauri is working on the ability to use CEF instead of the system web view in Tauri apps. Things are generally fine on recent versions of Windows and macOS. The system web views on these platforms will be evergreen versions of WebKit or Blink. But if you want to support very old versions of Windows or macOS, you might choose to use CEF instead of wrestling with Safari-from-five-years-ago.
