pownjs/webview

This module provides browser-like capabilities supported by Electron.

Pown Webview

Pown Webview is a helper tool and meta-library for running electron-based applications.

You can use it as a command-line tool but it is also meant to be used to import electron into other pown projects such that dependencies are maintained centrally.

This tool is part of secapps.com open-source initiative.
