I think the biggest difference is that I am using the chromium embedded framework (java-cef), so you get e.g. the chrome debugger for debugging your HTML/CSS/JavaScript.

My goal was to use java-cef, but hide all the weirdness.

Also, there's no pre-defined data binding, so a bit less opinionated in this case.

For one, I guess, the price tag.
