This is really awesome. Reminds me of http://www.tidesdk.org

Honestly, I'm super prepared for the world where HTML/CSS is used for all the GUIs (while HTML/CSS are not perfect, I think they've done a pretty good job being flexible enough style to millions of user-facing GUI applications, also known as web sites, for so long). I don't think many people agree, but the day I don't have to try and choose between TK, GTK, QT, and some other smaller framework is gonna be a good day.

Not quite the same (since this runs on chromium, and I'm not sure that TideSDK does also -- at least it's been around too long that it feels like they couldn't possibly have).

This is not a popular view, but I think as developers we should focus on one platform and serve it well, instead of making nearly tolerable apps for every platforms.

I'm supplying a node-webkit app to thousand of clients and I feel you.

We thought "Hey, it runs on everything!" would be nice for our future roadmap...but didn't we say the same about Java?

Some days I agree with you -- optimization/platform-specific code definitely has it's place (we would be nowhere without it, all the web stuff stands on shoulders of giants on other giants), and targeted building.

But other days I'm struggling to use objective-c.
