> The kind which don't fit the criteria above, and therefore really just ought to be honest-to-God native desktop GUI applications. I'm rather astounded that spaceflight mission planning software doesn't fall under this category. Our team is very small, so we don't have the budget or resources to make a native version for each platform. I think this is why most companies go with Electron. The browser/Web APIs abstract a lot of the platform-specific stuff away (at the cost of missing some functionality), which means you can run pretty lean. > Do you REALLY care about supporting Windows, Mac, and Linux targets? If so, then... why? Yes, we really do care. The current version of our software only runs on Windows, just like our main competitor. We're trying to appeal to a wider audience, such as aerospace grads, most of which use MacBooks. We really only have one competitor and are pretty close to having feature parity with their product, so the ability to run our software on 3 platforms is going to be a pretty big feather in our cap. > I would assume that spaceflight would be dramatically more locked-down and spec-targeted To some extent, yes, but probably not as much as you might think.
