You can always extend Electron apps with platform-native capabilities. Things like Neon [1], a wrapper for writing node bindings in Rust, make this particularly convenient. You can then use Rust to call into platform native APIs. It's more work, but you can still benefit from cross platform UI development and augment it with native code where appropriate.
