You should probably explain why you're tired of web apps. You can make them work offline and support other "native" features with service workers and other new APIs. If you already have a browser process running, starting such a progressive web app doesn't take any longer and any more resources then opening a website, so the typical criticism of electron doesn't apply.
- nunodonato 6y agoI'm very open to using Electron, actually it looks like the best option so far, just wanted to know what else is there. I'm not interested in webapps in the sense of maintaining a server, user accounts, etc.
- amadeuspagel 6y agoFor anything you can do as an electron app, unless you need some API that the browser doesn't support, you can also do a single page app, use a CDN like vercel to host it and localStorage/indexedDB to store any user related data. No servers or accounts needed.
