🌴Vincent Berger🌴 AppJS has been an inactive project for the past few years. I agree with Calviղ to take a look at https://electronjs.org. It's a great platform to work with. You can also consider Chrome Extensions for similar desktop like cross platform experience written with HTML, CSS, and Javascript. But I really recommend Electron.

Based on the article posted by Calvin, Proton Native looks promising and may be worth a closer review.

Mohamed Rezk Khalaf, To develop a desktop application for linux or windows in JS, CSS, HTML, you can accomplish that with: http://appjs.com/ Additional you can also use Titanium CEF. But I think it uses C++ also. EDIT: Outdated Solution! correct solution is given by Calviղ & enplained by David Carroll.

You should either use Electron.js or NW.js https://brainhub.eu/blog/javascript-frameworks-for-desktop-apps/

You can develop desktop applications in javascript using electron framework , The only disadvantage is that the source code will visible to all when you distribute the package , electron is easy to learn if you have good grip in javascript Extra: You can also develop android applications using HTML, CSS and javascript using apache cordova or phonegap

Hubert Weber I suppose you could use Eclipse as an IDE for building an Electron App in Javascript, HTML, and CSS. But I'm unaware of using Eclipse as a runtime engine for any app. I don't work with Eclipse. Does the IDE run in a framework that could be used for hosting JS based desktop GUIs?
