I've been working with Electron for a while, and one thing that keeps bothering me is how IPC is designed. I mean, it's pretty good if you write a simple "Hello, world!" app, but when you write something more complex wit

The uncompressed macOS app bundle size for Electrobun's `react-tailwind-vite.app` is ~63MB.

The business logic of your app is running in the Main process using Bun runtime. The website you load or the app's frontend is running in a separate sandboxed Renderer process. When I run Electrobun app on macOS, I see that it launches

A regular Electron app for macOS (DMG) is ~80MB. Electrobun's DMG is ~16MB.

A Tauri app built on CEF (Chromium) is very similar to Electron (which also uses Chromium). The key difference is that Tauri uses Rust for the application’s business logic, whereas Electron uses JavaScript. In this case I don't know wh

You could have just write the performance critical part of your Electron app using C++ and native node module and achieve the same performance improvements. You actually did it, but using Rust instead of C++.

Thanks for your feedback. I love the dark mode too. ClipBook is written using Molybden SDK. It allows building UI using modern web frontend frameworks like React, Vue, Angular and write business logic using C++. In case of ClipBook: UI — Re

This size comes from the SDK I use to build the app — Molybden SDK. It's like Electron, but for C++ developers. This SDK allows me to create UI using React and the business logic using C++. As for access to the source code — I see that

Just checked this scenario on macOS 14.4.1 M3 Max. Works well and copy everything.

Maybe I wasn't clear. I was talking about the preview panel. Sometimes I copy content of a source code (*.cpp) file, and I need to quickly look at what I have copied in the preview panel. I have to scroll a lot to look at the source co

It doesn't support images yet. I work mostly with text, so in the first versions I added support of the text content only, but support of images and files on the product roadmap. Will add it later. Thanks for your note. Appreciate that

I didn't enable support for images. It's on the product roadmap. I would like to add support for files too. As for quick edits — I do the same trick too. I will add the quick edit functionality. I miss it too. I'm not plannin

You can resize the window using mouse. Like any other regular window. I didn't implement the resizing feature using keyboard shortcuts yet. As for repositioning window, you can drag the window by dragging the panel with the keyboard sh

I think I can add this feature, so you can open the clipboard window on the screen with the currently focused window. I think a screen with the currently focused window should be treated as active. It's because I can keep my mouse curs

There are three downloads: for Mac Apple Silicon, Intel, and Universal. You see the 600MB binary, because it's probably Universal (Apple Silicon + Intel) DMG. To have a smaller size it's better to download DMG for your Mac CPU arc
