Yes please! I’m not a fan of wrapper apps, but for the ones that I have no choice in using (Slack for instance) it’d be great if they used the copy of WebKit included with OS X, preferably through WKWebView. While web engines are always going to be mammoths, at least OS X bundled webkit is specifically optimized for the OS and tends to be easier on the battery than Chromium-based stuff.

I have to say Tint is a great tool to develop apps with, particularly for binding a node runtime to native (Objective-C and .NET/COM) objects.

I've been using it for the past several months working on two fairly large-scale apps. Thanks Trevor and team.
