Yes. node-webkit / nw.js is really slick. I love that I can create a desktop app without even a hint of Cocoa or Obj-C on my part. The runtime is like 90mb, yes, but the source itself is 4mb including dependencies. Memory usage is decent at ~18mb

I don't know about you, but I don't want an applet as small as this eating up 18MB...

Really, what's up with you people?

BTW, not saying that the idea is bad or anything, but it's sad to see people talking about such a waste of resources like it's OK to use in "production". People have other stuff running on their machines and it adds up, quickly.

Not to be too acerbic, but, first of all, 4 MB is already huge for an applet. Secondly, how does the fact that the source is 4 MB excuse the 90 MB runtime?!

Please pardon my zeal, but...

18mb is not decent for such a simple little app! What?!?!
