With CheerpJ you are downloading the subset of the JVM that you need, and actually only once thanks to the standard browser cache.

There are many reasons why shipping via the browser is a better choice compared to shipping desktop apps. The main 3 in my opinion are:

1. Distribution: Give your user a link and the app will start 2. Isolation: The user can have confidence the app won't read his personal files. 3. Cross-platform: Every OS and every device, for real this time
