Not using it offline, definitely need the internet. What I meant was, you don't have to worry if the tool you're using suddenly disappears.

- indigodaddy 5y agoI have no idea how people aren’t getting this. People, if the website that the tool is hosted on is down or gone, then you are dead out of water. That’s why he made a local tool. Get it?
- junon 5y agoYes, though electron still isn't required.
- indigodaddy 5y agoI don’t necessarily disagree with you on that point.
- docuru 5y agoThe code can't run with only client JS. It needs a backend. ElectronJS allows running NodeJS as backend. I tried React Native (only support JS on the client-side, need to build native modules to run some core functions for languages), Flutter (a few missing utilities, not so familiar). I have answer why a desktop app in other comments so I won't repeat. Electron is the best fit in this situation.
