Like many in that thread, I'm wondering how WebView2 will work on Linux or Mac.

Will it be a PWA or will they build a native shell around native web views for each platform?

Thank you for digging into that! I've been out of touch with Microsoft tech for a while.

I wonder what form a WebView2 would take on macOS and Linux. Some of the commenters on that issue mentioned that they were interested in using it with MAUI/.NET [0] but they could even produce a lower level, C++ component for interop with other environments, which would be pretty interesting.

If I could build small, fast desktop cross platform apps with just .NET though, I'd still be interested.
