node-clipboard-event VS clipper

no library:) Electron clipboard.readText in combination with long polling techniques to get the changes. Instead of the long polling you could take a look on this solution but it does not work stable and need to be improved (https://github.com/sudhakar3697/node-clipboard-event)

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.
