Well the first difference here is that Quark is a free software, Adobe Air is not.

I din't know enough about adobe Air to comment on technical differences, but one thing that strikes me is that electron(as hence Quark) appears to be more popular than Adobe Air.

I'm pretty sure Adobe Air is free. And Electron is only popular among developers, whereas Air is a runtime for end users. Not saying you should use Air, just that I think what you are building has been built before. I do applaud you for the work, though.

You are doing a great job answering these questions. Love your project, nice work.
