Sciter is an embeddable HTML/CSS/scripting engine for building native desktop application UIs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, integrated from C/C++ code. This SDK is the legacy TIScript-based branch, now discontinued in favor of Sciter.JS.

Use cases

  • build a desktop app UI with HTML and CSS
  • embed a lightweight HTML rendering engine in a C++ application
  • create cross-platform native GUIs without Electron
  • call native C++ functions from UI scripts
  • package HTML/CSS/script resources into a binary

When to choose

  • you want compact, Electron-free desktop UIs with HTML/CSS
  • you are maintaining an existing TIScript-based Sciter application

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project - use Sciter.JS instead
  • you need a fully open-source permissive license
  • you need a full web browser engine
