    Call all Node.js modules directly from DOM/WebWorker and enable a new way of writing applications with all Web technologies.

  • So far the only thing that I see these apps have in common is that they are using webkit Web Engine. Yes even the apps I made, I made them using NW.JS, a framework that allows you to make desktop apps using web programming(HTML+CSS+JavaScript). Basically it has a webview(that also uses webkit engine) that renders the UI. Also my IDE VScode, is built with Electron, which exactly the kind of framework as NW.JS and uses webkit engine to render UI.

  • Visual Studio Code

  • This problem happened all of a sudden. At first i thought my computer became very slow, but after a lot of tests and trying, I could notice that the issue only affects specific apps. It affects Google Chrome, Edge, VS code (my IDE), and some other apps that I've made (yes I'm a developper).
