Spotify desktop app is developed with javascript?

I have used Spotify for some time now and I thought it was a 100% native desktop app til I saw a HTTP request error inside the application.

So that ma开发者_StackOverflow社区kes me wondering if Spotify is developed with javascript using frameworks like Titanium.

Anyone knows?

Spotify uses chromium embedded. So actually the Spotify desktop application wraps a chrome browser so to say.

It uses a web browser component for certain portions (content areas), many larger apps with dynamic content do this...but it is a native app, not written completely in JavaScript.

Doing it this way provides more flexibility and ability to make changes without a client code update.

It uses chromium embedded framework

See spotifyonline.co.nr if you want something like this . :)

No it's not developed in Javascript, it uses an internal html-like (but not so like) framework for the web content, and its proprietary, probably because it tightly integrated with the content backend, which is proprietary due to legal rights.
