Frequently Asked Questions

Will Freya have Mobile/Web support?

Freya current focus is on Desktop (Windows, Linux, MacOS), so there is no plans for either Mobile (Android/iOS) or Web support. But, this doesn't mean it won't happen, from a technical point of view, it is possible to run Freya on these platforms with the right adjustements.

Why Skia instead of Webview?

These are the main reasons for this:

  • Ability to define the elements, attributes, styling, layout and events to my own criteria
  • Apps UI look the same no matter the platform
  • Because Freya has control over all the the pipeline it is easier to implement and use certain features such as headless testing runner
  • Not relying on OS for new features or fixes
