Funny enough, when looking at Steam processes tree (and if I recall correctly, also licenses), client is done with Chromium Embedded Framework.

- toyg 11y agoWhich is probably why it still looks like shit on Retina screens. Oh, how I love HTML apps...
- greggman 11y agoWhat does that have to do with HTML5 apps? In the browser, when HD-DPI support was added every page started using HD-DPI font rendering, HD-DPI CSS, HD-DPI SVG, only image were still lo-res Conversely I still have native apps that are low-res only because updating them to HD-DPI meant shipping a new app.
- toyg 11y ago> when HD-DPI support was added Indeed. Except that, to get it, you-developer actually had to ship an updated browser with your "app" -- basically the same as any native app, except that instead of being "just turn on this setting in a plist and recompile", it means refreshing your little in-house fork of a massive browser project that barely anyone understands. Clearly Valve cannot be arsed to do that, so Steam keeps looking like shit more than 3 years after these screens appeared. The universal toolkit is not so universal if every app ships its own custom version.
