Hi,

not sure if you considered that idea... webdriver is supported by all browsers but being HTTP, it brings latency. If performance is a concern for exchanging between node and the webview content, the webview could connect to a websocket server set up by node.

Sorry I don't follow. What problem could WebDriver solve?

To avoid having to compile a c++ nodejs addon !
