I want to build a Tiling window #browser that is very similar to: https://github.com/szymonkaliski/cartographist On top of it, I need to add certain features. My question is: Is there any way I can avoid #Electron in order to build this that is cross-platform? As far as my research goes Tauri with #Rust and Wails with #Golang seems to accept only one WebView per window. I think GTK as well. For now, I know Golang and C. I'd like to stick to this as much as possible. I need to start somewhere, but I don't know what are the options that I have. Thanks. #askfedi #programming

    @mysticmode@ieji.de I'd prototype the tiling in one native window with multiple WebKit views first. That would show whether the layout needs separate windows before I commit to a toolkit.
