## Q8: I use pdf-tools currently for my pdfs inside Emacs, would you consider this a better alternative to that and if so why? Although I am definitely trying it because the browser looks incredible, possibly the best implementation of an Emacs browser I have seen, I would love to hear your opinion on the pdfs compared to something like pdf-tools.
PDF-tools is great, it would be an awesome option if you can't run EAF on your machine. However EAF PDF Viewer is just **a lot faster and smoother** as it uses PyMuPDF as its backend.
-
- Oh, thats great actually, I have noticed it being a little choppy at times, I am excited to try EAF in general because it looks awesome and if its faster than pdf-tools I will probably also switch to it for my pdfs. Thanks a lot for the talk, one of my favourites in this EmacsConf, it gave me a lot of great tools to try inside Emacs!!
-
- Thank you!!!
Also because pdf-tools is much older than EAF, it had more attention and more people working on it, so there are definitely more features than the current EAF

## Q2: Is there anyway to implement EAF without the reparenting behavior from X11?
That's one of the challenges right now to get EAF working on other platforms. We're always looking for people to help out.
-
- Are there any ideas on this at all? I can try to help out but don't know what's even been tried (and perhaps has already been ruled out)
-
- So EAF is currently using \`QWindow::setParent \`, not Xreparent, so it in theory should be able to support at least Windows (iirc it provided API for setParent function to interact with)
-
- However QWindow::setParent doesn't work on native wayland, you can get more context in here: <https://github.com/manateelazycat/emacs-application-framework/issues/449>
