About Contrail

"Contrail" is the codename of Alicorn 4.x (aka. Alicorn R). It's a major rewrite of the codebase aiming to improve the performance and stability of Alicorn. Highlights include:

• Bye bye, Electron.

  Electron has been our good old friend since the first day Alicorn is built. Fairly speaking, Electron is suitable for almost any desktop app but block game launchers. Chromium eats memory and takes up space in modpacks, and while not necessarily making Alicorn slow, it's indeed one of the major blockers of extending the use cases.
