Hi,

I am interesting in these too. As a proof of concept I have started a cordova-cef (cef = Chromium Embeded Framwork) implementation which is planed to run on Windows, OSX and Linux.
The repo: https://github.com/hsimpson/cordova-cef
And it's cordova-js fork: https://github.com/hsimpson/cordova-js
It is not very far but some basics on windows are working.

I plan to implement OpenGL offscreen rendering of the web content on all platforms. Because I want to run an opengl engine implemented in c++ as a cordova plugin. I know CEF will support WebGL, but the OpenGL Render Engine Plugin should also work on the mobile platforms iOS, Android and probably Windows Phone 8 via Angle (I will open source this plugin later).

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

This is interesting (I like the 3 platforms support) - if this gets in, I
propose retiring the cordova-osx repo.

Yes Jesse,

It's about supporting node-webkit as a new, different platform.
I see some great value added to a desktop platform :

- Really easy to debug (chromium dev tools integrated)
- Allow kiosk mode and other desktop integration which can be usefull in
touch aware application.
- Allow packaging and distribution on 3 main desktop OS.

I think Cordova is mostly a bridge between HTML and Native APIs.
Node-webkit enable a bridged communication between Webkit and Node.JS so
can be used as a command proxy for Cordova.

You also have the new packaged Chrome Apps which can be great to support
too, I think.

I think a cordova-desktop repository could be a great place to try out
theses platforms.

No, we are talking about node-webkit OR appjs as another target platform
to support, which would mean we could build for apps for Windows, Linux,
OSX desktop applications.
I think node-webkit is the more mature platform, but I have only glanced
at both. Definitely interesting.

Cordova is mostly about phones (except when its OS X and Windows).
Node support is not a project goal though I would encourage you to
look at authoring plugins for iOS, Android, Windows Phone that mimic
Node APIs if that is something you're looking for.

What about a node-webkit or appjs platform integration ?

It could help debugging with Cordova related projects and permit to
add three platform with one platform : "Windows", "Linux", "OSX".
I'm thinking about a platform proxy for node-webkit and/or
appjs-deskshell.
What do you think of this improvement ?
Is there some node-webkit specialists which can helps in this project ?

Cordialement.
