But how else do you make an app for browser, mobile, and desktop from a single source code?
What does chrome mean in this context, I feel like I'm missing something?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think these applications all use Chromium?
Oh yeah Slack's and Discord's logos are in there, guess I didn't pay much attention to the meme lol
Yep! I just was super confused by op calling it chrome instead of blink or whatever.
All of these apps are based on Google chrome’s rendering engine, and thus have a lot of overhead all so that these apps can be coded similarly to how webpages are coded. The most common way to do this is with electronjs (the logo on spongebob’s head)
That was the only assumption I had, I was overthink that fact that op said chrome instead of the more common terms
I think they did that because in the show Squidward really does use the word chrome (only panel 1 has different captions than the actual script), so it fits the joke even better
Probably Google Chrome, the post is saying that Chrome eats too much RAM and you should use Firefox instead
they're near parity in resource usage. the problem isn't really one browser or the other, it's that the modern application design paradigm is putting webshit into everything.
someone explain these symbols
I only know microsoft and discord
Lol a fucking web browser in Electron https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaker_(web_browser)
GUIs are 👏valid👏 for casual people who cba with CLIs, but they're not valid if they're Electron GUIs
fwiw I do agree, I use CLIs for everything. I'm talking specifically about people who don't have the time for the learning curve though, for them I understand using GUIs
