Hi Justin,
I want to say a big thank you for the Webview2 control, it's solved a problem for me. During Covid I decided to try to build an digital facsimile of analog synth, I had always been so impressed with Dr Nash's work on synthesis using PB. I started in PB but it was a miserable failure, so I swapped to using web audio which was much more productive. I didn't want to use Tone.js, it's sort of cheating and I wanted to understand the bits myself. I got a few elements working but got stuck and put it aside. Last month I thought I'd try the Github/copilot ai and like magic it was all working within 4 hours. A few days of fiddling afterwards got it to a reasonable state which you can see here https://little-annie.puter.site/

I wanted to make a standalone version and thought I would make a wrapper. Having recently been playing with node.js, i thought I would start with that. I got a 340MB build that didn't work. Next stop was PB but she wouldn't run in the webgadget or the standard webview gadget. My last resort was your gadget and she worked! You made an old man happy! I just used your browser-async example with cosmetic changes. Thank you.
