That would be great, if we have the chromium Content module alternative. 😊

Betreff: Re: Usability study was: Think Java, not Electron! was: Apache 
HTML/Java UI

I have no plans to embed electron as it would be overkill. A HelloWorld is 115 
mb and contains nodejs and desktop APIs we don’t need. But I‘d love to replace 
JavaFX WebView which is a 49mb  Java 9 module with chromium content module, 
Which is about 40-50 mb and has better features.
