>If you're impressed by a webserver being able to interact with the OS for things like accessing files or databases, I don't think anyone is "impressed" by it. It is just useful. The point of electron is being able to write javascript applications that run on multiple platforms. Using Lazarus (and Pascal) means you need to learn another language to write native applications from the one you use to write web applications. I'm not taking a position here, I am just pointing out the pros and cons. I am neither a javascript nor pascal programmer so I have no dog in this fight.
