Damn electron experiment is fire!

If it will turn out as a good app, this would be interesting.

BTW, I created a website for https://seed-ecosystem.github.io/seed-web/#/ and it is a PWA with offline-first work and other things, so this might also be a direction to look into (as an easier approach, since Electron is Node, but PWA is literally still browser with a lot of capabilities). But PWA has less features to connect with native world, so yeah, tradeoff

@y9san9 I thought about providing PWA support, but electron app is a different thing for me.

Do we really need desktop client for it?

[y9san9]

Oh, I don't know on that one, probably it's up to you, I am just helping with what needs my help

[y9san9]

But for context I do have multiple PWAs installed on my mac. https://excalidraw.com is one of them

we can make a poll somewhere about web based client versus PWA?

[y9san9]

I think whatever you think is the best should be picked. I don't think there's a big difference if it's the same amount of efforts. Or if you are willing to commit to more efforts to have better experience. I don't think we should poll people since it's not going to be a high-quality research but just a random pick (we don't have many people to poll for this to be somewhat objective)

Okay, I will think about it.

@y9san9
Now I can implement Electron app sub-module, that will reuse our existed code to build web-based apps for desktops.

I think that its will cost us nothing.
What do you think about it?

[y9san9]

Love it, let's go
