Demo of the `-electron-corner-smoothing` CSS property at 0%, 30%, 60%, and 100% values on a 192px-wide square with 48px `border-radius`. 60% matches the macOS default.

@wrongbits.bsky.social's RFC for the `-electron-corner-smoothing` API has reached the two-week Final Comment Period in our RFC process! This nonstandard CSS property allows apps to further integrate with macOS' design language.

You might be wrong about @electronjs.org

Migrating from BrowserView to WebContentsView | Electron BrowserView has been deprecated since Electron 30 and is replaced by WebContentView. Thankfully, migrating is fairly painless.

In Electron 30, we deprecated BrowserView and replaced it with a non-experimental WebContentView. Electron maintainer @annyyang.bsky.social wrote a helpful guide on how to migrate your app to WebContentView! www.electronjs.org/blog/migrate...
