There are many ways you can actually not ask yourself that question. 1. You can package your web app into electron or similar 2. You can use a portable platform like QT or Xamarin But more importantly, you should chose the one that will help you conclude that this is a good idea sooner. You'll probably end up rewriting the tool once you get feedback about where it rules and where it sucks. So I'd say that unless you want to do that side project to learn something new, stick to what you know best (and what you know will work). That'll get you to the point where you can decide whether this is worth pursuing faster.
