Use browserify's polyfills #14

Open gimenete opened 7 years ago

gimenete commented 7 years ago

Browserify implements many Node.js libraries but for the browser, such as http, crypto, buffer .

Since they work in a browser, they should work in a webview.

Shouldn't we embed node instead? There's node API's that arent polyfillable

I thought this project was about not shipping your own nodejs + chrome runtime, but rather making an electron-mostly-compatible framework using just what your OS has.
