sciter-js-sdk VS folium

How tiny is the output? What is the API? (I couldn't find any documentation. I thought maybe it's in the Help menu in the app itself but all I found was this https://i.imgur.com/6puOMIe.png - On that note, what level of JS is supported? As far as I can tell it uses this https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-js-sdk which is based on Fabrice Bellard's QuickJS ) Is there sound?

JavaScript & Electron Sciter!

Having normal procedural language for build automation is of course useful. That's for those 10% of cases when "standard" build DSL (make,CMake,etc.) simply do not have facilities.

But the rest of 90% tasks should have compact (easily readable) definitions.

I personally found that Premake5 has quite good balance for these tasks.

Premake files are plain .lua files and due to Lua syntax they are easily readable. And if needed you can call from them procedures defined in again Lua.

So typical project (multiplatform) definition looks pretty readable, for example one project from Sciter SDK:

That's why in Sciter I've extended JSX with translation meta instruction @:

Note Tauri is full fledged Client/Server with WebView (client) is running in separate process with RPC between UI process and Rust code (Server).

For the comparison:

Standalone Sciter (scapp.exe, https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-js-sdk/tree/main/bin) takes ~8 MB of RAM (with minimal Cairo and GDI backends).

That's 20 times less than even Tauri.

WebView based solutions are not suitable for applets - small portable desktop applications.

scapp.exe ( Standalone sciter engine ) takes 45 Mb showing its default "about" document.

It does support , with limited support but still.

See: https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-js-sdk/tree/main/samples/c...

Sciter also supports immediate mode painting on any element (like in DearIMGUI):

    element.paintBackground = function(gfx) {

A good thing to try would be to look over the folium documentation on their GitHub Page, Folium. For help with code you could ask ChatGPT to explain what you're interested in using their docs.

I currently utilize Folium for a work project but would like to move it out of Folium into something that supports API requests for real-time data and vector tiles instead of raster.

If you know Python you can use Folium produce Leaflet maps without using Javascript. I'm not sure if the updating functionality you require is possible, but could be worth a look.

Try Folium, here are some examples.

For our visualizations we will be using Folium. This is a description from the authors:

I'm mapping some election results, and trying to create a diagrammatic representation of who voted for whom, and where. I'm using Python, and I can create a perfectly respectable initial map (without Voronoi diagrams) using its folium package, with OpenStreetMap tiles. See https://numbersandshapes.net/posts/post_election_swings/.

Look in the folium package. https://python-visualization.github.io/folium/

Choropleth maps are a quick and easy way to visualize a numeric variable geographically. I love the ease and interactivity of most functions from the folium module, but the choropleth method lacks interactivity and clarity in the legend.
