Options for creating portable web apps?

303 Recognized Expert Contributor
I am want to create a web application (say a calculator or game) to embed and run in the browser and am just curious what the best current options are. It should be run client-side, no server connection. I would prefer something compiled. I don't want to have to spend much (if anything) on licenses or development kits/environments, and it should be distributable. What options does that leave me? Applet? Flash? JavaFX?

Hi, I have been asked to develop an automated cash register application for use in a typical restaurant. The catch is that it has to run on Windows. My questions: is the python - wxPython combination mature enough to be able to build such an app in a portable way? What about printing? Thanks in advance, Koen

I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can learn a good programming method for creating windows apps. I'm just starting to learn windows programming with MSVC++ 6.0.

Specifically, I'd like to learn how to set up and plan out a C windows project and break it down into pieces of code that will...

The portable versions of Firefox, Thunderbird and Sunbird for use with USB drives seems like a great idea and one I could make a helluva lot of use of at work - but before I drive down that particular road, does anyone know how good / bad / indifferent the implementation of Javascript is on these apps? For anyone else who might find them interesting, by the way, they are all found at the site http://portableapps.com/

Hi Group, I want to get into writing portable apps that can run solely off a USB stick, but I have a few problems. I'm originally a java/.net developer, but I don't want it to be a requirement that the host computer has .net or a jre installed. I also am not very fond of developing with VC++ *cry*. Also done some perl, so I checked out ruby, python, python.... hey

I don't know if this is the right thread or not, but... In my endless pursuit to hold on to my dinosaur laptop (Dell 1100 Inspiron - circa 2004)...I want to keep as much space free for my programs to run. The problem is that as new software comes out, they seem to take up more and more space on the HD. I use most of the PortableApps.com programs from my usb with great success and ease.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
