html5 - What means "runtime" in Intel XDK? -


i new mobile development , interested hybrid apps , of course intel xdk. when reading intel xdk's documentations faced "runtime" word.

what mean of phrase , it's mean when saying

crosswalk html5 runtime, ...

in blog post.

apologize me if asking 1 of stackoverflow's stupid questions.

"runtime" refers time program runs, opposed other times in programs life cycle compile time. software typically written, compiled, deployed or installed, run. these different phases referred "compile time", "install time" , "runtime". e.g. "at compile time, compiler ...".

"a runtime" software package necessary at, well, runtime. e.g. library, interpreter, virtual machine or other such supporting packages. crosswalk system takes in html 5 "apps" (including html, javascript etc.) and, well, makes them work. executes them. runs them. it's browser engine, not packaged browser, system can interpret , run html 5, can embed whatever other software want.

so write application in html 5; make work native desktop application can downloaded , installed, write tiny windows application , os x application contains crosswalk, runs actual application inside it, cross-platform.
