clipper VS neutralinojs

I've performed a couple experiments remaking Electron apps using Sciter.

My first target was https://github.com/AkashRajpurohit/clipper, a neat little clipboard manager. The owner was gratious enough to officially list my project under the "Clones" section of his readme =D The result was a 6mb file, compared to the original 165mb Electron app.

The second attempt was https://github.com/girkovarpa/temps-lite, an aesthetically-pleasing weather app which was motivated largely by the fact that the original was broken and abandoned yet still had people who wanted to use it. According to the open issues and forks trying to resurrect it, anyway. The file size savings were similar to the former, and they start virtually instantly. The Electron apps have a bit of delay and then a blank window before they finish starting up.

We tried using pywebview for a cross-platform desktop app when it was version 3.x and some of the features were limited, especially when it came to systray interactions. Will have to try it out again. In the end, for that specific project, we ended up settling on NeutralinoJS. Wails was another big contender but due to limited GoLang resources in-house, we decided not to use it. Reference: https://neutralino.js.org/

Look into Neutralinojs and Tauri.

I've been drawn to NeutralinoJS as it looks like it will do what I want, but I'm willing to hear some other recommendations and maybe tutorials on how to do the objectively simple things I've outlined above.
