> Distributing your website like a flash file/app as a binary is one missing feature I suppose?

Lots of solutions to this:

* SickBeard ran a local web server and the UI ran in your browser.

* Electron / Nwjs

* Whatever Microsoft has planned for Electron (Electron Runtime?)

* That Microsoft compiled HTML format thats defunct mostly (chtml).

As much as everyone hates on the web. Its a consistent UI platform. Not 100% consistent every single time but you can get pretty darn close.



Naw I mean you could burn a Flash project to a CD ROM and it would auto-play when your grandma stuck it in the "coffee holder."
