Interesting project! After clicking around on the website:

> In almost 10 years, Sciter UI engine has become the secret weapon of success for some of the most prominent antivirus products on the market: Norton Antivirus and Internet Security, Comodo Internet Security, ESET Antivirus, BitDefender Antivirus, and others.

What an intriguingly specific niche of customer! How come all these different anti-virus companies decided to use your platform?

One of the reasons: AV application should look modern to give an impression that the app is adequate to modern threats. So while app backend is relatively stable, its UI shall be easily tweakable. CSS/HTML is good for that.

I actually really love it. Typically AV products UIs feel snappy and lightweight and it is the backend engine that does most of the work and feels horrendously as a bottleneck. Which I think is an interesting phenomena when considering modern desktop applications where typically the backend code does very little and the frontend one is the one being bloated (Electron).

It's a bit sad that there is not a lot of talk and re-usable components from these companies for Sciter that can help us create snappy apps!
