I’d like to try to rebuild Bitcoin Core GUI using the JavaScript Electron framework. My goal is to get a real world understanding of the pros and cons of moving from Qt to Electron.
Before I start, I‘d like to know if this has been tried before or if there are ongoing efforts in this direction by anyone? I spent sometime looking into how to implement this. One approach could be for Electron to drive the UI by running bitcoind and communicating with it through RPC. But I don’t know if such implementation can achieve feature-parity with the Qt implementation. Qt has the advantage of direct access to Bitcoin Core code. Anyways, I just wanted to share these ideas before going further with them, so please let me know if you have any information on the above! -- Sent from my iPhone
