The only other alternative is High Contrast but uh

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:36 PM

if you've ever

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:36 PM

used discord

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:36 PM

with high contrast

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:36 PM

...or worse, the Internet

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:36 PM

there's a reason why people still use cef despite the bloat it has

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:36 PM

all for modern UX

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:37 PM

unfortunately discord uses electron

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:37 PM

tauri looks promising

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:37 PM

I still haven't figured out how to embed CEF into a custom game engine lol

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:37 PM

Or any HTML renderer for that matter

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:38 PM

if beamng drive is anything to go by

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:38 PM

embedding CEF into any sort of game is a death sentence

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:38 PM

garry's mod

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:38 PM

it is hideously slow

if you want a relatively easy to embed web rendering framework LibWeb from serenity is quite easy, if requiring some C++ glue code

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:39 PM

actually I was looking for web rendering frameworks

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:40 PM

we were at our wit's end and was about to use cef

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:40 PM

ewwww no

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:40 PM

no C++

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:40 PM

if I wanted to use C++ I wouldn't be using Silk

Lyris the Kitori•1/16/23, 10:40 PM

i mean ok

Lyris the Kitori•1/16/23, 10:41 PM

its like at most 100 lines of code copied from https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/blob/master/Userland/Utilities/headless-browser.cpp

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:41 PM

the next thing .NET has is anglesharp but at most it just parses html and css

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:41 PM

that's at least 100 more lines of C++ than I want in Sparky's codebase

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:41 PM

I'm not writing a C++ game engine, I'm writing a C# one

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:42 PM

we go back at the topic of .NET having a lack of decent libraries at anything other than ASP.NET

Lyris the Kitori•1/16/23, 10:42 PM

Lyris the Kitori•1/16/23, 10:42 PM

.NET has a lot of quite good libraries for a lot of things

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:42 PM

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:42 PM

since when was ASP.NET ever decent
it is low tier dogshit that deserves to be given the boot

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:43 PM

.NET has a really good Core Audio wrapper that I used for https://github.com/acidiclight/Airflow

Nitrous•1/16/23, 10:43 PM

what I meant was anything written is bound to be used for ASP.NET

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:43 PM

i cannot think of a single worse thing in .net than ASP

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:43 PM

I can

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:43 PM

winforms

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:43 PM

NNitrous what I meant was anything written is bound to be used for ASP.NET

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:43 PM

ah
i see what you mean
in that case
yes

Lyris the Kitori•1/16/23, 10:43 PM

winforms is fine to work with tbh

Lyris the Kitori•1/16/23, 10:44 PM

aside from Mono's shit cross-platform impl of it

Rritchie ❤winforms

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:44 PM

windows forms is the only GUI library in C# that i genuinely like
ETO is okay and i live with it because of that but windows forms is decent

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:44 PM

plus

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:44 PM

ohhhkay

Aqua•1/16/23, 10:44 PM

you can make a damn table with it

Lyris the Kitori•1/16/23, 10:44 PM

like from a developers perspective winforms is simple

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:44 PM

winforms is fine

ritchie ❤OP•1/16/23, 10:44 PM

if you use it in C#
