@andros @marcolas The point is your architecture is the same as #ElectronJs, replacing embedded #NodeJs and #Chromium running #JavaScript with embedded #Emacs running #Elisp.

So every app using it has all of #Electron’s disadvantages:
• lowest-common-denominator #GUI obviously foreign to the host OS
• non-portable shims to integrate with host OS features
• an individually bespoke runtime consuming storage, memory, and compute as if it were a separate virtual machine
