NodeGUI is an open-source library for building cross-platform native desktop applications with JavaScript and CSS like styling. NodeGui apps can run on Mac, Windows, and Linux from a single codebase.

NodeGUI is powered by Qt 5 which makes it CPU and memory efficient as compared to other chromium based solutions like electron.

Features:

  • Cross platform. Should work on major Linux flavours, Windows and macOS
  • Low CPU and memory footprint. Current CPU stays at 0% on idle and memory usage is under 20 MB for a "hello world" program.
  • Styling with CSS (includes actual cascading). Also has full support for Flexbox layout.
  • Complete Node.js API support (currently runs on Node v12.x - and is easily upgradable). Hence has access to all Node.js compatible npm modules.
  • Native widget event listener support. Supports all event available from Qt / Node.js.
  • ... and many more!

Try it out

git clone https://github.com/nodegui/nodegui-starter
cd nodegui-starter
npm install
npm run build
npm start

If you are new here, welcome to the JavaScript community! This community is entirely dedicated to the JavaScript language.

What is JavaScript?


JavaScript (a dialect of ECMAScript) is a high-level, dynamic, multi-paradigm, object-oriented, prototype-based, weakly-typed, and interpreted language traditionally used for client-side scripting in web browsers. JavaScript can also be run outside of the browser with the use of a framework like Node.js, Nashorn, Wakanda, or Google Apps Script. Despite the name, it is unrelated to the Java programming language and shares only superficial similarities.

What you can do


  • Ask questions about the JavaScript language
  • Ask questions about JavaScript code
  • Ask questions about the ECMAScript standard
  • Compare different ECMAScript versions
  • Share JavaScript code you made
  • Share JavaScript lessons
  • Post nearly everything about JavaScript, or which contains JS code

What you can't do


  • Ask questions about usage of browser Developer Tools
  • Ask questions about code editor usage
  • Post content that is: rude, spam, aggressive, NSFW

Do you have questions?
