I don't know when that page was written, but there were other developers that were using XUL before it was deprecated. The only one that comes in mind right now is ActiveState and their Komodo Edit/IDE. But there used to be more developers and I recall their being a dedicated page that listed those other products built on XUL. The documentation of it, and the jump in complexity when it came to XPCOM (which were written in C++), were the reason (in my opinion) why platforms like Electron got popular instead of XUL.

  I think it's relevant as the linked post states that Mozilla was the single user of the XUL runtime.
