Revery - an Electron alternative

Huh, this is interesting. Actually I’m especially interested by Revery as an Electron alternative. How is it coming along?

Thanks @AstonJ for setting up the portal! Glad there is some interest in Revery :smiley:

How is it coming along?

Progress is slow and steady - most of the improvements are driven by Onivim at this time, since it’s the only consumer, and there isn’t really funding for Revery outside of that.

I think there is a lot of potential in the space though - a UI framework that has React principles, but compiles to native code, for native apps.

Interesting—other than onivim are any other apps using it?

AFAIK - Onivim is the only shipping app that uses Revery. Some cool toy apps, like this drum machine Ken Wheeler built for a ReasonConf talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdI10qe06Is (demo is about 25 mins in: https://youtu.be/fdI10qe06Is?t=1494) .

Good question @malloryerik! I hope you don’t mind but I split your post into a dedicated thread… I also created our portal for Revery:

Also, CC’ing @bryphe in case he misses this :blush:

Ken’s drum machine is v.impressive! I wish Revery all the success.

After watching that vid youtube recommended this

What was it like meeting Bill Gates? Could you get him to invest in Revery/Onivim :dollar:
