Crosswalk (https://crosswalk-project.org) is a package recently released by Intel that embeds Chromium directly into an Android app to provide a consistent web view across all versions of Android phones. Is this something trigger.io can and/or is planning to add to their portfolio of options? The potential benefits, given the issues with older Android webviews, is significant enough to motivate us to take on the cost of managing the Cordova toolchain ourselves and drop our use of Trigger.IO. Alternatively, is this something that could be done as a plugin/extension to Trigger.IO?
Thank you, Ian

Trigger have released the beta of their crosswalk support in v2.3.1-beta. Looks like performance improvements means its worthwhile using it, no matter which version of Android you intend to support. It won't be made official release for a while until we in the community test it out a bit.
