The whole “newness” idea seems odd anyway considering electron must be coming on ten years old now. > The argument for Electron and React Native isn't "it's modern", it's "it's much cheaper". This is spot on. I’ve worked on a big electron project before for a massive firm and a lot of work was done before picking that direction. Proof of concept was done for a couple of alternatives but electron ended up better on balance.
