Some real life applications that use Sciter core engine for their UI – HTML/CSS
under the hood.


BUILD CROSS PLATFORM DESKTOP APPLICATIONS WITH HTML, CSS AND SCRIPT

Sciter brings a stack of web technologies to desktop UI development. Web
designers, and developers, can reuse their experience and expertise in creating
modern looking desktop applications.

Various GUI frameworks offer different UI declaration and styling languages,
such as QML and XAML (Microsoft WPF). On the contrary, Sciter allows using time
proven, robust, and flexible HTML and CSS for GUI definition, and GPU
accelerated rendering.

In almost 10 years, Sciter UI engine has become the secret weapon of success for
some of the most prominent antivirus products on the market: Norton Antivirus
and Internet Security, Comodo Internet Security, ESET Antivirus, BitDefender
Antivirus, and others. The use of HTML/CSS has allowed their UI to stay in touch
with modern GUI trends throughout all these years, and will continue to
well into the future.

Sciter Engine is a single, compact DLL of 5+ Mb in size. Application using it
are 10+ times smaller than the ones built with Electron or Qt. And size of the
distribution matters, one of main Sciter’s customers discovered “golden 40
seconds” rule: for the user, to buy a product, it should not take more than 40
seconds from the click on “download” button to the UI to appear on screen.


SCITER QUARK

And with Sciter’s Quark you can build native HTML/CSS/JavaScript applications
just by using your favorite source code editor.

USER INTERFACE OF THE 21ST CENTURY

We are entering the era of 200-300 pixels per inch monitors (e.g. retina) that
contain 4-9 times more pixels than previous displays. Modern CPUs are simply not
capable to “rasterize” that amount of data, so GPU acceleration is definitely
required. Sciter, and HTML/CSS in it, is the natural choice for this purpose.
Sciter uses modern hardware accelerated graphic back-ends wherever they are
available.

Rapidly changing UI fashion and trends are everywhere. Yesterday, it was the
so-called skeuomorphism. Today, Metro and Material Design are our everything.
With Sciter, changing the front end of your application involves just altering
the styles (CSS), and probably a couple of scripts that do animations. No need
to rewrite the whole application because your old GUI is nailed down to the rest
of your code.

We live in the “era of AppStores”, when application installation by the user is
just a matter of a few clicks. Consider Sciter even if you are planning to
develop a pure web application. Why to put your great design into a Procrustean
bed of a browser tab? In Sciter, your UI may use multiple HTML/CSS windows.
Particular DOM elements can even be rendered in separate popup windows outside
of the main window surface if that’s needed for better usability, and user
experience. Do you really want to invest a vast amount of resources into testing
application in multiple browsers? Sciter UI would allow it to run seamlessly on
all desktop OSes with minor OS specific style tweaks.
