This SDK leverages the windows trident engine to process javascript and render HTML as desktop applications.

It provides background threading, multiple window management, skinning, file and registry access and much more.

It is also possible to create your own plug-ins.

We have used it successfully to create complex HTML applications, including several security suites and installation wizards.

As an installation wizard tool it is very powerful: download only those files you need and conserve bandwidth. Calculate SHA256 checksums for upgrade. Launch MSIs, modify the registry and much more! Can wrap MSI installations or entirely replace them.
