    What do they use for graphics and audio?

      It's not clear at first glance, but given (1) the apps are written in JavaScript (2) the project has repos for different OS native bindings, my bet is some kind of embedded JavaScript engine that just calls through to OS native widets

        It compiles TypeScript statically to C++, there's no JS engine or VM running.
