Perhaps a newbie question, but could this possibly also work on WebOS (http://webosose.org/develop/native-apps/overview-native-app/ & http://webosose.org/develop/qml-apps/qml-apps-overview/)?

More references;

@sanderlooijenga it's mandatory to have JS engine part which evaluates all JS code and communicates with native C++/QML part of app. Project has dependency on Node.JS engine, but also can be run with JavaScriptCore (experimental mode). And in near future it should support operating with WebEngine Qt's module. Some JS engine from above should be available on WebOS, or it's required to add support of JS engine supported by WebOS.

@MaxRis Thanks for your quick reply & clarification. It might look into it in a near future. (Interested in creating a (React) native webOS TV application)

@sanderlooijenga, looks like nodejs can be used in WebOS - http://webostv.developer.lge.com/develop/js-services/using-nodejs-module/ If you will start your research it would be really interesting to hear about findings :)

Thanks @vkjr and yes just saw that document 😅. Regarding the research; yes, will definitely provide feedback when I have some!
