Uh, aren't users the most important factor here, not developers?

  Sure, such that in my experience users prefer dedicated apps most of the time. For example, Postman (browser-based HTTP client) has some of the worst UX because it's a Chrome app and not stand-alone. Can't event alt-tab to it. I have to alt-tab to Chrome and then find the Postman window.

    Users also prefer to be able to use more than one program at a time on their computer, so please, if you have to use Electron, keep an eye on performance characteristics of your application.

    I'm not a heavy user of Postman so I can't say if the UX was improved by it, but Postman actually moved to Electron last year: http://blog.getpostman.com/2017/03/14/going-native/ http://blog.getpostman.com/2017/03/14/going-native/

  Only to a certain degree.
