It's more than just looks: Electron exactly replicates how the OS handles scrolling and text input, while custom frameworks often don't. Lacking macOS's scrolling velocity or being unable to add accents to letters in a text input gives the app a different behavior, which is distracting and feels bad.

- lights0123 5y agoTrue, but is rare, and the default is the correct behavior.
- pseudalopex 5y agoElectron gets things wrong too. macOS Services don't work in Electron apps for example. And arrow keys don't work right in menus on Windows and Linux.
