Without third-party libraries and/or frameworks, you can't target the same desktop applications that Electron can. For instance, .NET didn't have a cross-platform desktop offering until the last few months with the introduction of MAUI, which supports both Windows and MacOS, but not Linux.

There's others. They come and go.
