DeskGap – Like Electron, but uses the system webview

In plain words

DeskGap is a framework for building desktop applications that leverages the system's native webview instead of bundling Chromium like Electron does. It's designed for developers who want to create cross-platform desktop apps using web technologies while keeping file sizes smaller. This approach makes applications lighter and faster than traditional Electron-based alternatives, appealing to developers seeking efficient desktop development tools.
