EdgeSharp is WebView2 for Win32 C# and value added for WinForm/WPF. EdgeSharp uses many features in Chromely - https://github.com/chromelyapps/Chromely.

Hi All,

Chromely - https://github.com/mattkol/Chromely was introduced earlier. Thanks to all that gave feedbacks.

Based on demands from some developers, there are new features added - like Websocket implementation for real-time apps development, frame handling (to execute JavaScript functions see - https://github.com/mattkol/Chromely/wiki/Frame-Handling) and "iframe" support.

So far there are CEF1 and CEF3 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_Embedded_Framework#Ov... CEF1 is single process - no longer supported. CEF3 is multi-process - current.

CEF3 still allows single process, but it is only advisable for testing/debugging only. Multi process is recommended for optimal performance and likely some functions may not work well without it. My experience is for simpler apps, single process can still be used.

Chromely is fully configurable and allows single process usage. Please see configuration wiki page at : https://github.com/mattkol/Chromely/wiki/Configuration

Correct me if I am wrong ...

Sure Xamarin.Forms will be a lot more "lightweight".

Chromely is an HTML desktop app.

All the options you mention will end up being traditional (with their own controls) desktop apps with HTML support. Chromely is pure HTML. Chromely is not tied to rigid frontend controls .. you can use any html/javascript/css framework you like.

Chromely does not use WinForm or WPF. Extendable to WinForms and WPF for those who want to.

So, a different approach, if you may.

Yes, for now, just humble me. Others are already showing interest, and the team will grow, I hope.

Contributions are always welcome, via issues raised, or PRs or any other means.

Sorry for the late response. Just a busy day for me.

No support yet for macOS, but the plan is to make Chromely truly cross-platform. The only limitation now is the required skill. I have never developed on macOS before and do not currently have the bandwidth to learn enough.

However, as I have mentioned to others in the past, help and contributions are welcome.

> It's a great project though, thanks for building it!

Thank you.

Just knowing about Blazor from you. That should be interesting and doable.

Chromely is relatively new, so may be soon someone may show interest and combine with Blazor. I will also take a look.

Thanks for pointing that out.

Thanks for your encouraging comment.
