I truly believe that the success of Electron is not limited to only being cross-platform. It is a very compelling motivation, really. But I think one of the key aspects is that the HTML/CSS/JS ecosystem is so huge for building UIs that is a lot simpler than to rely on the classic UI desktop frameworks
You’re correct. We need to solve the resource intensive issue while still allowing people to write apps with a web stack
Wine doesn’t help you on iOS or the web. It could never have been as cross platform as a browser
BoxedWine would like to disagree.
Maybe its not too late
Yeah, I though about mobile as soon as I hit “add comment”. Still, there must be a better way. I'm rooting for all the lighter weight alternatives.
