Sciter is an embeddable HTML/CSS/scripting engine

NOTE: Sciter.TIS development has stopped.

This version of Sciter uses TIScript language as a language-behind-the-UI.

Development of this branch was stopped in favour of Sciter.JS.

Sciter.JS uses modern JavaScript (ES2020) instead of TIScript.

Some screenshots of real life applications that use Sciter UI

Hello World

• "hellowest Hello World in the World" - this demo does not require any compilation.
• hello C++ world - C++ integration demo that shows:
  • how to create HTML/CSS window from C++ code;
  • how to define native C++ function to be called from script;
  • how to use resources embedded as resource.cpp file - generated by bin/packfolder[.exe] utility that compresses folder with HTML/CSS/script files into a static byte array.

Information

• Application Architecture
• General Sciter embedding principles and for native programmers
• Notes for Web Frontend developers

Essential integration headers

• include/sciter-x-dom.hpp - sciter::dom::element C++ class pretty much all you need to access DOM tree of the window. That is C++ wrapper of [include/sciter-x-dom.h](plain C DOM API)
• include/sciter-x-window.hpp - sciter::window C++ class represents sciter window on all supported platforms. The window class:
  • include/sciter-x-host-callback.h application (window host) callback interface that handles resource loading and script call methods
  • include/sciter-x-behavior.h DOM event handler - receiver of DOM events (button clicks, input change events, etc).

Application demos

• usciter - demo "browser" for all supported platforms - use it to load samples from /samples/ folder.
• uminimal - minimalistic multiplatform integration sample.
• notepad sources of https://html-notepad.com application.
