As a JavaScript developer, I'm quite surprised this is the best there is for cross-platform JavaScript development. Is "just stick Chromium into all your apps" seriously the best we can do as an industry? It's resource-inefficient to high heaven, not to mention that it's slow and doesn't integrate with the native platform styles at all. There's react-native-windows, but I'm not running Windows, and even if that did gain Linux compatibility it seems that they're quite focused on Microsoft-owned platforms. There are a number of solutions that are either dead or are not ready for production yet, such as React NodeGUI, Proton Native or react-native-desktop-qt. I keep looking for alternatives to Electron, which wouldn't require such heavy resources to run, but my searches always seem to come up short. They both use an unreasonable amount of RAM, and I feel this even more as my laptop is quite old and has 4GB of RAM. I have to use Discord and Element on a regular basis (which both use Electron).
